Every Upcoming Superhero TV Show Of 2017 - Ranked By Anticipation

3. Iron Fist - Season 1

Danny Rand Iron Fist

After Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Daredevil again, and Luke Cage, it's finally Iron Fist's time in the spotlight.

The fourth Defender arrives on our screens ahead of the team-up events series later in the year, and promises more of what's made the other Netflix shows so good. That means great characters, mature themes, and incredible action. Added into the mix here, though, will be a heavier dose of mysticism, and a focus on martial arts.

The Marvel/Netflix track record speaks for itself, even if each show tends to suffer a little dip in quality at various points. Finn Jones is less certain, as his role in Game of Thrones doesn't give us as much to go on. They haven't made a misstep on casting these heroes yet though, so hope should remain pretty high for this one.
