Netflix series the mystical "Iron Fist," though he's also a martial arts expert.

Now, Iron Fist showrunner Netflix and Marvel about season 3 stories never occurred, as the show was canceled beforehand. On Twitter, Metzner responded to a fan who specifically asked about Danny's powers and what viewers might have learned about them. He cited a thought he "toyed with" involving Danny's Chi and guns. Check out Metzner's response about Iron Fist season 3 below:

It's believed that part of the reason Netflix canceled its Marvel shows was because of new streaming service Disney+. Though the streamer doesn't yet have any MCU original series, there will be some starting this year. This will provide direct competition with Netflix's original content. 2020 will see the introduction of The Mandalorian, which was also original to Disney+.

Some Marvel fans are still disappointed about the brutal cancellations of their favorite MCU shows on Netflix, including Iron Fist. Luckily, thanks to social media, viewers are more likely to hear teases of what might have happened had a show not been canceled. While it may be hard to hear that Metzner had such an interesting idea to use in season 3, at least fans can now imagine it more clearly. Fortunately, they may not have to wait forever before potentially seeing the character of Danny Rand again; Netflix's rights to the Marvel character expire in 2020. With any luck, fans will see some variation on Iron Fist in the future.
