People are as ignorant as the dog shit as they step in. That's why they scream about diversity. The ones screaming are more racist then the people they scream at.
Coming from an Asian, I don't need another Asian kung-fu master character on the screen to build up the stereotype for Asian actors. Asian actors can do a lot more kinds of roles and a white cast can do the kung-fu as well.

Ayrton Sy Dude if people are getting angry about him being white instead of asian then that really proves people get butthurt just for the sake of being butthurt. Really stupid.
Danny Rand is white in the comics, shows, and games. He is one of my favorites ever to grace Marvel! Stop hating because he "should" be asian. WHY? you don't know the story so you judge without research. I literally hate everyone. Just watch the show. The new iron man is black btw, Hulk is asian, and Thor is a female. If they've done anything to relate to the culture is to keep it true to the canon and bring on new people the right way. Stop trippin Im black and I approve this message.
Tony Moore That actress from Agents of Shield should worry about her damn show and obviously has never known Danny Rand is Caucasian. Ppl get easliy butthurt
Why are people calling for more diversity in Marvel?! Ms Marvel is muslim, there is a black spider-man, thor is a woman now, Hulk is asian now, Iron Man was replaced with Iron Heart (an african american woman), X-23 is wolverine now, Marvel was the first comic to have a story about a homosexual marriage, there is a hispanic ghostrider.... friggen captain america is an african american now. Of course most people that complain don't know this.
ummm...did you randomly rant on the wrong comment...or is your trolldar off? Cause i fail to see the relevance to your comment. Nice try though...ill give you a star for your effort. Cause you're special. :-)
It seems pointless to me to change a character's race for the sake of diversity. If diversity is so important than use chracters that are already of different race. If the character is Asian use an Asian person for the roll. if the character is black character use a black person for the roll. I'm super excited for Iron Fist, but I guess I just find it irritating that people are complaining that a white person was used to play the roll of a white person. From what I've seen so far we have some diversity already. Luke Cage is black, Claire is latina, Danny's friend/ally is Asian, and Danny Rand is white. I'm super stoked for Iron Fist!
well that's typical, "a white guy is cast as a kung fu master like in the comics? that's racist the kung fu master character should be.... Asian....." so I guess not stereotyping is racist.... but only if he's white....
So who else is gonna watch all 13 episodes in a row and ignore all the critics? I'm pretty sure between people being stupid about him being white most of the complaints were that the first 6 episodes were boring, but all the Marvel Netflix series started slow with more character building than super powers. I hope the second half is epic, I will be disappointed if the second half is boring.
well that was exactly as predicted. slow 5 episodes followed by an epic second half. it's not as good as the other Marvel Netflix series but they're all amazing so it's hard to compare. I'm annoyed by the writing though, they make Danny out to be a bit of a dick and although there are some good fights he should be easily kicking the ass of random henchmen.
Nice to see Iron Fist get some love I remember playing as him in Spider-Man Friend or Foe. Now if we can get that Star Wars KOTOR thing on Netflix then I'll be happy.
I remember reading short versions of the Iron Fist stories in the back of martial arts magazines back in the early 80s. He was the first Marvel hero I got into. Until I saw the comic panel still at the top of this video, I completely forgot about the 2nd person narrator format of those old comics! Man, I loved that! It was so unique among comics, really pulled my 11 year old self into the story!
can't wait hope its as good as the other shows, although on a some what unrelated note I hope when defenders comes out misty knight will get that badass artic-vibrainium robotic arm... that arm does some serious damage.
I hope Iron Fist will eventually wear his iconic yellow mask and green suit by the end of the Netflix series. It won't be fair for Daredevil to be the only hero to wear a costume in The Defenders.
Christopher Charles define 'suppose' I always make the argument on the other side , if a character was originally designed to be LatinX and was made Black would you make the same argument ?
Brandon Reed As an Arab I do, but the fact is the majority of people complaining will NEVER be satisfied and will always find some way to get offended, it's just the way SJWs are.
RN Jesus to me he just doesn't look right. it is the hair and his face and he is too thick/stocky. He makes me think of the guy from knocked up (the main male character. I can't remember the actors name right now).
Xicheng Luo yeah I finally started watching it and the fight scenes were a bit disappointing especially for the character. you can clearly see the actors limitations are getting in the way of the characters established back story.
Finn Jones was cast almost one year ago exactly, I don't know how long it takes to film a TV show but he could not have had a lot of time to bulk up or learn martial arts.
#1 - Hiring the guy who made a complete s**t sandwich of Dexter's last three seasons to make a TV adaptation of the comic was a really, REALLY dumb idea.
Wise man once said: To judge a show through the eyes of another is not to judge the show through one's own eyes. Boom Iron Fist knowledge lol translation: I am going to watch the show and see if I like it.
It was a little tough to get through the first few episodes. It started getting good around episode 7 or so, I thought. I will watch the next season too.
If you believed that he should have had his race changed, your accidentally being racist. Don't believe me? Then ask yourself why did you want him to be Asian? Are you saying just because they know kungfu now they have to be Asian? That's right that's stereo typing and no it's not ok. The guy is white on the comic, just leave the damn social politics alone and enjoy the damn show. That is all, thank you.
Chloe Bennett being mad about casting a White actor as a comic book character who is White is a little hypocritical. Chloe is half Chinese/ half Caucasian and guess what... the character she plays, Quake, is half Chinese/ half Caucasian in the comics
To say that fans are disappointed with Marvel casting a Caucasian instead of an actor of Asian decent is completely and utterly false. True fans of Iron Fist are very happy and pleased that they are sticking with the comics and the character's true self.
I wouldn't call this fact needed to know but I'm still stating it. For those who don't know, Iron Fist was originally in a relationship with Misty Knight.
Any chance of Marvel doing something with "Master of Kung-fu"? One of my favorite comic books when I was a kid and more of Marvels take on the TV show Kung Fu. Thoughts?
Happy Chinese New Year!!! 🧧🧧🧧🎉🎉🎉today (February 10th) greetings for Marvel's comicbooks Iron-Fist because he is only the Most iconic uniquely popular fortunate martial arts Marvel character. Happy Year of the Dragon!!! 🐉🐉🐉💪💪💯💯💯
While I am excited for the Iron Fist series, I really wanted Christian Howard to play Danny Rand. He was my top pick. Alain Moussi would have been good too. Oh well! I'm positive Finn Jones will be great. He's very enthusiastic about the series and about Defenders. I can't wait.
Happy Year of the Dragon/s!!! today (February 10th) 🎉🎉🐉🐉👍👍👏👏 occasion celebration greetings for Marvel's comicbooks Iron-Fist because he is the only REAL iconic famous comicbook character who has dragon symbol or emblem.
Saying Danny Rand casting should be Asian and not white is like saying Luke Cage should be White and not black. Clearly they are trying to stick with the resemblance from the comics. Hulk Green in comics. Hulk Green in movies....Hulk smash
So people get pissed when a white actor is given a role for a non-white character such as recently with ScarJo in Ghost In The Shell which is pretty understandable but then also want a non-white actor to play a white character. I just don't understand people anymore...
Okay, he's white for a reason! Marvel already had a Asian Kung Fu hero Shang-Chi, Master of Kung Fu that was popular when Iron Fist was pitched. The belief is Marvel wouldn't allow for two nearly identical heroes in two books. So Iron Fist was changed to Caucasian Danny Rand to differentiate him. By the way, Marvel still own the rights to Shang-Chi, he is Asian, and he actually fits the Netflix marvel-verse BETTER than Iron Fist. He has no powers and is just a master martial artist. His "costume" is a fancified martial arts uniform that can easily be toned down for TV. In fact, I would like to see Netflix consider bringing him to life in his own series after the Defenders. (I was a big fan in the 70's!)
Fucking love Iron Fist and I can't wait for it. For anyone who legitimately thinks Iron Fist is should have been Asian then that's worse than the whole concept of "white saviour" cause not every martial arts hero needs to be asian. Good casting of an Asian is in Inhumans where Karnak and Triton are Asian. Not all Asians need to be smart or good in martial arts.
Iron fist is originally white, if you want an asian to play a martial artist, just ask netflix to make shang-chi series. If they cast a white guy to play shang-chi, then it would be nonsense either.
I don't know why people give a shit about the characters race, I didn't even know about it and pretty it won't affect anything in the show, it's a fictional character not an autobiography
Happy Chinese New Year!!! 🎉🎉🧧🧧 tomorrow (February 10) greetings for Marvel's comicbooks Iron-Fist because martial arts characters are uniquely remarkable real deal interesting iconic for Marvel superfans.
They have to bring Doctor Strange to create the defenders or something as a reference. I mean they already have one Sherlock actor on Iron fist, albeit a minor one.
I kinda feel that wanting Iron Fist to be Asian because he knows Kung Fu is stereotypical. But yeah, stop that white saviours trope! Like The Falcon! And War Mashine! And Drax! And Groot! And Gamora! And Rocket! And Luke Cage...oh my...
It's funny that people got mad that they didn't cast an Asian actor to play Danny Rand (even though Danny Rand is white in the comics) but I feel like if they did people would still get mad and say Marvel is stereotyping and/or racist. Damned if you do and damned if you don't.
He is white in comics plus he will be fighting the hand a Asian organization so they will be represented fine. Also I think changing him into a Asian man is more offensive because then they are just stereotyping right since it's a martial arts show
Lately, I've been hearing "Marvel's Iron Fist" is not going out that well. I'm still gonna watch it, even if I agree, just because it's part of "Marvel's The Defenders" series.

Themaninthemask 👏👏👏
Spat my drink out from laughing so hard. Nice
So annoying...& im not even white lol as lomg as they stick to theor comic race im fine with it.
No lie white need to stay outta the diversity movement
hell y'all don't have to been included in every damn thing
People are as ignorant as the dog shit as they step in. That's why they scream about diversity. The ones screaming are more racist then the people they scream at.
Coming from an Asian, I don't need another Asian kung-fu master character on the screen to build up the stereotype for Asian actors. Asian actors can do a lot more kinds of roles and a white cast can do the kung-fu as well.
what do you mean? We all know Asian folks are born with superior martial arts and math skills
You're right it's just totally racist to embrace your own culture

Fact: He's always been Caucasian so people should stop hating on him just because he's white in the show
Ayrton Sy Wait...that's actually happening? wtf
Ayrton Sy Dude if people are getting angry about him being white instead of asian then that really proves people get butthurt just for the sake of being butthurt. Really stupid.
Ayrton Sy correction alot of people are disappointed that he's white. More people are mad that he's not hot enough. 😂
Ayrton Sy Hate is a strong word....
Ayrton Sy The only people hating on him are SJW dipshits who never read a comic in their life.
'' hey , this guy does kung fu , if your're not casting an asian as the kung fu fighter you're racist!''
flawless logic....
🤣
Nope. The argument is to get somebody competent, which they didn't do whatsoever. He's supposed to look fluid, not whiny and soft.
Danny Rand is white in the comics, shows, and games. He is one of my favorites ever to grace Marvel! Stop hating because he "should" be asian. WHY? you don't know the story so you judge without research. I literally hate everyone. Just watch the show. The new iron man is black btw, Hulk is asian, and Thor is a female. If they've done anything to relate to the culture is to keep it true to the canon and bring on new people the right way. Stop trippin
Im black and I approve this message.
Tony Moore People are just stupid and obviously just get outraged at shit they know nothing about for the sake of being outraged
Tony Moore That actress from Agents of Shield should worry about her damn show and obviously has never known Danny Rand is Caucasian. Ppl get easliy butthurt
cdp619 What are you talking about? Which actress?
Darkpoet1792 Clhoe Bennet
Can you link me to what she said?
I am Asian and I feel that it is unnecessary for him to Asian. He's white in the comics and he should be white in all iterations. No questions.
You are a distance to your people... Take a blade and perform your Samari... Never mind that Japanese
Iron Fist is comic accurate and everyone goes insane but if he were Asian it would be labeled racist because it's an Asian person doing martial arts.
RoboSaurus They just want to be angry at white people and pretend its not racist. (Sorry for the horrible english. Not from USA)
maria eduarda Andrade USA... hehehe so stupid 🤣
Why are people calling for more diversity in Marvel?! Ms Marvel is muslim, there is a black spider-man, thor is a woman now, Hulk is asian now, Iron Man was replaced with Iron Heart (an african american woman), X-23 is wolverine now, Marvel was the first comic to have a story about a homosexual marriage, there is a hispanic ghostrider.... friggen captain america is an african american now. Of course most people that complain don't know this.
Iron Fist makes me think of the old comedy martial arts flick "The last Dragon".
"Who's the master!?!"
"Sho'Nuff!"
It a DISNEY tv show for CHILDREN, nobody cares ... go watch frozen,thor and other disney shit for children
ummm...did you randomly rant on the wrong comment...or is your trolldar off? Cause i fail to see the relevance to your comment. Nice try though...ill give you a star for your effort.
Cause you're special.

Who else is hyped for Iron Fist
SupaPixelGirl me💖
Hell yea
ME!
Can't wait till midnight!!!!!!!
SupaPixelGirl I hope it's not a let down

Brendan Colquitt ?
That's some stupid logic. Iron Fist has always been white and that's that.
here's hoping the whole series is good also hoping he doesn't take whole season to get his costume like Daredevil.
gphjr14 they already stated that he won't have his costume in the first season
also punisher didnt get his uniform until the last episode of season two as well
aww fuck! really?!?!?!
i mean season two of daredevil is when punisher finally wore the black trench coat and a bulletproof vest with a skull painted on it.
No offence to you comic book guys but that costume looked gay as hell. I wouldn't be able to take him seriously if he was running around in that
Another Fact is Misty Knight was dating Iron Fist In the books
Iron Fist was so cool! It felt like I was watching a classic video game play out in front of me. Soundtrack set that tone perfectly.
So who else is gonna watch all 13 episodes in a row and ignore all the critics? I'm pretty sure between people being stupid about him being white most of the complaints were that the first 6 episodes were boring, but all the Marvel Netflix series started slow with more character building than super powers. I hope the second half is epic, I will be disappointed if the second half is boring.
ToroidalVortexLove This. Seriously, if the critics were right about this show sucking in the first season that will be the real disappointment.
well that was exactly as predicted. slow 5 episodes followed by an epic second half. it's not as good as the other Marvel Netflix series but they're all amazing so it's hard to compare. I'm annoyed by the writing though, they make Danny out to be a bit of a dick and although there are some good fights he should be easily kicking the ass of random henchmen.
ToroidalVortexLove I watched in a row and i liked it and that's me who no fan of comics
Nice to see Iron Fist get some love I remember playing as him in Spider-Man Friend or Foe. Now if we can get that Star Wars KOTOR thing on Netflix then I'll be happy.

Yes we are still interested
I’m always interested in Iron Fist 👊
I hope Iron Fist will eventually wear his iconic yellow mask and green suit by the end of the Netflix series. It won't be fair for Daredevil to be the only hero to wear a costume in The Defenders.
I'm glad they keep it close to the comics.
Blade should join the MCU Netflix stuff and things!
and Moonknight
can't wait to see madame Gao again, love her. So badass!
He pulls off the "going full Italian" quite nicely.
AWW brings me back, this character was in one of my favourite spiderman games
1# HE'S SUPPOSE TO BE WHITE
Christopher Charles true
LOL
Christopher Charles define 'suppose'
I always make the argument on the other side , if a character was originally designed to be LatinX and was made Black would you make the same argument ?
Ste 1 Stop spamming this comment.
Hypothetical isn't relevant here though.
Why do I have the feeling that if an Asian actor was cast that people would criticize the show for having the Asian Kung-Fu master stereotype
Because you don't understand underrepresented minorities
Brandon Reed As an Arab I do, but the fact is the majority of people complaining will NEVER be satisfied and will always find some way to get offended, it's just the way SJWs are.
hyped for the iron fist!
gj product placement, saw an ad for the series on Netflix for this vid. Is he Irish tho ,is that why the series is coming out on St. Patrick's Day?
I can't wait to watch it.
HYPEEEE!!
tbh the actor could've bulked up some more
grawnut I initially thought he'd at least be lean, separating him from Daredevil and Luke Cage, but I guess you have a point
RN Jesus to me he just doesn't look right. it is the hair and his face and he is too thick/stocky. He makes me think of the guy from knocked up (the main male character. I can't remember the actors name right now).
It does not add to his character considering ironfist is a martial artist he is suppose the physique of one and this guy does not
Xicheng Luo yeah I finally started watching it and the fight scenes were a bit disappointing especially for the character. you can clearly see the actors limitations are getting in the way of the characters established back story.
Finn Jones was cast almost one year ago exactly, I don't know how long it takes to film a TV show but he could not have had a lot of time to bulk up or learn martial arts.
So now we're at the point of people getting upset that a white man was cast in the role of a white character?!
Fact: His name is Daniel Rand, and he is the immortal Iron Fist, sworn enemy of The Hand and protector of K'un Lun.
Ignore the critics review ! Iron fist is actually really good ! Better than Luke cage !
Amen!
Errordemn6 tf is wrong with you
My name is Danny Rand and I am the Iron Fist, but I never use the Iron Fist that often when its useful.
I gave up on critic since batman versus superman
I for one thought it was a good watch and doesn't deserve the amount of bashing it has gotten
Nice vid
The Bruce Lee movie clip that you show for the #1 result is from the movie The Big Boss, not Fists of Fury.
Him not being Asain works for this story.. Plus he gets shitted on by everybody on this show.. So I disagree with the whole white savor complaint..
netflix is really hitting home runs with these super hero shows
#1 - Hiring the guy who made a complete s**t sandwich of Dexter's last three seasons to make a TV adaptation of the comic was a really, REALLY dumb idea.
I just finished the Series it's so amazing
How many times are they going to show the exact same clip from the tv show's trailer...?
I can't wait to see this show
You forgot about one important thing: Critics so far aren't a fan.
just got Iron Fist on Contests of Champions ;D
Wise man once said: To judge a show through the eyes of another is not to judge the show through one's own eyes.
Boom Iron Fist knowledge lol translation: I am going to watch the show and see if I like it.
This anti white stuff has to stop. People are people I don't care about your color just your character.
It was a little tough to get through the first few episodes. It started getting good around episode 7 or so, I thought. I will watch the next season too.
If you believed that he should have had his race changed, your accidentally being racist. Don't believe me? Then ask yourself why did you want him to be Asian?
Are you saying just because they know kungfu now they have to be Asian? That's right that's stereo typing and no it's not ok.
The guy is white on the comic, just leave the damn social politics alone and enjoy the damn show.
That is all, thank you.
Good video
It'd be awesome to see characters from Agents of SHIELD pop in on the Defenders. Or at least mentioned in that oh so subtle way lol.
Danny’s Iron Fists 👊 are strong and solid. He can probably kill people like Colossus,Luke Cage and Superman.
Chloe Bennett being mad about casting a White actor as a comic book character who is White is a little hypocritical. Chloe is half Chinese/ half Caucasian and guess what... the character she plays, Quake, is half Chinese/ half Caucasian in the comics
"Sorry for a white guy being white, guys, really am."
Iron Fist is a Awesomely Powerful Superhero Fighter.
I love him ♥
If they made Danny Asian it would've been a new generation of Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan.
To say that fans are disappointed with Marvel casting a Caucasian instead of an actor of Asian decent is completely and utterly false. True fans of Iron Fist are very happy and pleased that they are sticking with the comics and the character's true self.

Only thing you need to know about Iron Fist is that he's the Immortal Iron Fist, protector of Kun-Lun, sworn enemy of the Hand.
I don't mind a white iron fist. Just so as long as they keep his awesome quotes coming lol
By the way you are pronouncing the name wrong of Namor Mckenzie aka SUB MARINER.
Iron fist is originally white, if you want an asian to play a martial artist, just ask netflix to make shang-chi series. If they cast a white guy to play shang-chi, then it would be nonsense either.
I don't know why people give a shit about the characters race, I didn't even know about it and pretty it won't affect anything in the show, it's a fictional character not an autobiography
how ironic, daredevil, jessica jones, luke cage, and iron fist are purposely put in the same time.
fact #1:
the show shouldn't have been shown to Critics first...
Iron fist is one of the most underrated and most powerful heros in marvel he could lay out the hulk with his fist
Happy Chinese New Year!!! 🎉🎉🧧🧧 tomorrow (February 10) greetings for Marvel's comicbooks Iron-Fist because martial arts characters are uniquely remarkable real deal interesting iconic for Marvel superfans.
They forgot to mention that Sabretooth's 1st debut was in Power Man/Iron Fist comic book
The Netflix version is honestly doesn't do him justice.
They have to bring Doctor Strange to create the defenders or something as a reference. I mean they already have one Sherlock actor on Iron fist, albeit a minor one.
I kinda feel that wanting Iron Fist to be Asian because he knows Kung Fu is stereotypical.
But yeah, stop that white saviours trope! Like The Falcon! And War Mashine! And Drax! And Groot! And Gamora! And Rocket! And Luke Cage...oh my...
Critics clearly didn't do their homework. Danny Rand has always been a white guy.
Yes...let's add diversity by making the martial artist Asian...not stereotypical AT ALL.
0:47 "Dangerous exposition"
Think you meant to say, Expedition. I don't think he was attending an Exposition with his family. Those aren't dangerous.
It's funny that people got mad that they didn't cast an Asian actor to play Danny Rand (even though Danny Rand is white in the comics) but I feel like if they did people would still get mad and say Marvel is stereotyping and/or racist. Damned if you do and damned if you don't.
who cares what critics say this series is gonna be 💥
"Although Danny Rand has always been Caucasian in the comics." Boom! At least they acknowledged it.
Fact: His name is Danny Rand, and he is the Immortal iron Fist. Sworn enemy of the hand and protector of Kun Lun.
why didn't @watchmojo do one for Luke cage?
He is white in comics plus he will be fighting the hand a Asian organization so they will be represented fine. Also I think changing him into a Asian man is more offensive because then they are just stereotyping right since it's a martial arts show
Lately, I've been hearing "Marvel's Iron Fist" is not going out that well. I'm still gonna watch it, even if I agree, just because it's part of "Marvel's The Defenders" series.
