13 Upcoming Netflix Original Shows To Be Excited About

8. Iron Fist

One of the many series set to be made by Netflix under its deal with Marvel, and set to be the last of the individual series to air before the big team up, Iron Fist should be joining the small-screen superhero fun next year.

There€™s no confirmed cast as yet, although Ryan Philippe has been linked. The hero, Danny Rand, is an expert in martial arts, who possesses the mythical power of the Iron Fist. This allows him to summon and focus his chi, causing his natural abilities to reach supernatural levels.

The martial arts aspect is exciting, as we€™ve seen with Daredevil just how well they can do fight scenes, and if the quality is anywhere close to the level of that show then this will be another €˜must-watch€™ from Marvel and Netflix.
