Why does Armie Hammer's name Keep getting dropped for this? Is his career already over?

Oh YUCK. Fucking DROPPED if that happens. I couldn't stare at that asshole face for 13+ episodes.

No it doesnt. Goddamn Jessica Jones had enough sjw shit to satisfy you white-haters for a lifetime, so let the character be portrayed as he was meant to be.

I forgot non white actors triggers /tv/, I should have put a trigger warning and I apologize.

>>63206886
He was raised in asia, learned kung fu in a mystical Asian dimension, and is the world's greatest martial artist

Nothing about "white hating," it just makes sense for the above stated reasons.

Oh no, they were both great, and the movie was fun, but it bombed

Needs to go well with Luke
>>
>>63206942
He wasn't born there, he was born in America so it makes more sense for him to be white. Fuck off you weaboo tumblr queer.
>>
>>63206977
So who are you suggesting?
>>
>>63206942
He was raised as an outsider, race is literally the best way to portray this.

Hell, even making him black would be better than making him Asian.
>>
>>63206096
why would they make a show about such a gay, no-name, irrelevant hero?

How the fuck does a bright green/yellow fireball ninja work with JJ and DD?

and ffs his name doesn't even fit the scheme (IF)
>>
>>63206131
punisher is confirmed for daredevil s2, that's about it
>>
>>63206942
He was born in New York to white parents, his whole motivation is getting revenge on the New York businessman who killed his dad, which is the whole reason why he will be in New York with the other defenders

Also his powers basically translate to being able to punch really hard, boxing is a western martial art
>>
>>63207030
ur mum
>>
fuck this weaboo faggot who should be cast for Luke Cage
>>
>>63207118
already cast
he's in Jessica Jones
>>
>>63207063
They fucked up not having him and Luke as a buddy cop team, which is what they were in Heroes For Hire, their comic book.

Basically if you need a superhero, give them a call. Luke was the hard hitting hothead and iron fist was the more level headed strategizer.

Heroes for Hire buddy cop series. Woulda been great.

also a comedic She Hulk series with Howard the Duck voiced by H. Jon Benjamin.

hair dye and who cares about the race.

Get someone who actually know martial arts, young enough to do the part successfully and you can pick up with little effort. It is the best business move for marvel. pleasing purist who care about muh white guy doesnt matter anymore, since the majority of the audience wont be comic book "fans"
>>
I hate changing the race and culture of characters, but for once I actually want them to change it. Make Iron Fist an Asian guy, or at least partly so.

The "white guy becomes chosen one savior of all chinks through martial arts" is such a fucking tired plot.

No casting an Asian won't be the "best business move" as if you're some expert. It won't matter who they cast if the story is good so they might as well CAST FROM THE FUCKING COMIC BOOK

He can't, it's a classic Commie brainwashing technique to convince people of something that is contrary to what experience teaches them to erode their confidence and self-trust.

Hey senpai I'm just looking out for your mental well being because you just know thats the direction they're going to go, so just don't expect the guy to be white. He most likely won't be.

Sure lets just not think about anything and just dumbly stare at moving things

Pls, just stop memeing for a secon and think. Honestly think about it. What irection, knowing Marvel, do you think they're going to go with casting, and really whats the big fucking deal about it. Its all capeshit anyway, and if it bothers you that much you've always got the avengers, the most money making marvel franchise with pnly white characters and actors (I honestly don't know what Ruffalo is though).

This fucking shit about muh source material shouldn't even fucking matter on /tv/ thats a fucking /co/ problem

I don't agree, considering the direction the Defenders are taking (gritty Hells Kitchen) versus the Avengers that take place on a much larger more marketable scale. The proof is in the pudding.

Also nice job focusing on three words of the entire post and not refuting or arguing any point.

what if they cast him as a half asian half white, and he gets a lot of shit for not being 100% asian

Fuck if I know, I'm looking at this from a purely outside/marketable position.
>>
>>63208985
That's stupid

Look
>iron fist (blonde)
>daredevil (brunette)
>luke cage (token black)
>jessica jones (token girl)

The team has all the boxes ticked

The people who raise Iron Fist and teach him martial arts aren't Asians, they're ALIENS and the place they're in doesn't have a real world equivalent or race.

He doesn't use what they teach him to save them with his superior white blood he uses those skills to get revenge on the man who wanted to fuck his mom so he killed his dad who is in New York

If you want a Chinese guy kicking everyones ass watch one of the thousands of kung fu movies pumped out of China each year instead of this netflix superhero series
>>
Scott Adkins

He might be a little old for it, but I'd rather have an Iron Fist who knows how to put on a believable fight than one who completely looks the part.
>>
I think Dan Stevens is the best choice.

But, if they did want to go with an ethnic choice for MUH DIVERSITY, I'd say Bobby Morley. He's fucking great on The 100.

Oh I get that its racist, I'm just saying its par for the course for Marvel. Plus handled a certain way I think most asians wouldn't mind considering he would be the star of his own show.

Badlands has asian sword fighting flips but people aren't outraged by it.

Serious question to anyone willing to answer but do people here SERIOUSLY care about Iron Fist and his backstory as a comic character or do people just flip out at the casting of a different race over a white guy?
>>
>>63209880
Because revisionism is bad that's why

If you want an Asian comic book hero use an existing Asian comic book hero or make a new one instead of taking a fifty year old continuity of character being white and throwing it away because "omg its 2015 whites are evil and putting them in media is literally genocide of non whites"
>>
>>63209940
How diehard is the ironfist fanbase that the producers would even care about? No one would care, and revisionism or whatever is an incredibly dramatic term when adaptation and blind casting has been a thing for decades.

I just don't understand why people care, outside if fans of the series, if Ironfist were white or not. Most people no experience with the series at all what the fuck difference does it make to them?

Are people still mad they made Nick Fury black?
>>
Iron Fist is a weird Marvel character. In that most of his stories and his lore are actually good.
>>
>>63210070

I'm a fan of the series, and I wouldn't give a fuck if he's Asian, as long as he's not Danny.

Should there be flashback stories about the earlier Iron Fists?
