Netflix Isn’t Giving Iron Fist a Third Season

Despite an improved second season, Netflix won’t be delivering a third season for Marvel’s Iron Fist.

In a statement to Deadline, Marvel said:

Marvel’s Iron Fist will not return for a third season on Netflix. Everyone at Marvel Television and Netflix is proud of the series and grateful for all of the hard work from our incredible cast, crew and showrunners.

Marvel and Netflix added:

We’re thankful to the fans who have watched these two seasons, and for the partnership we’ve shared on this series. While the series on Netflix has ended, the immortal Iron Fist will live on.

This is the first cancellation of a Marvel show by Netflix. The show starred Finn Jones and Jessica Henwick and the second season ended with the building of exploring past Iron Fists as well as hinting at a Daughters of the Dragon spin-off.

Jessica Jones, Daredevil, and the Punisher are all getting more seasons from Netflix. Luke Cage is expected to get a new season.
