“We have it here, and we are filming with a rain machine. "We have access to a place that is normally flooded with tourists,” she said. Henwick believed they were “so lucky” to have access to such iconic places as the Bethesda Fountain. Loras Tyrell and Nymeria Sand – the characters played by Jones and Henwick respectively – may have never met on screen, but thanks to Comic Cons, press tours, and table reads, the two have known each other for a while. He shot with three other cast members, including Jessica Henwick, a good friend of his through their mutual work on HBO’s Game of Thrones. Jones wasn’t alone in Central Park that night. Daredevil, Jessica Jones, it takes place in like Hell's Kitchen, it's quite gritty. Look where we are filming today,” he said, pointing to the fountain behind us. Danny is fresh, and I think he brings a lot of that to the show."Įven visually, he added, their locations set them apart. “All the other characters are quite dark they have been through the mill quite a lot.

Marvel's Iron Fist Trailer for Netflix – Danny Rand Gets Ready to Punch Everyone Finn Jones, the English actor who plays the titular character, think there’s something else different about him as well. But with Iron Fist, there seems to be a fantastical quality that rest of The Defenders has stayed away from. The Marvel-Netflix collaborations have all been about street-level heroes they've not been about saving the world from aliens or killer robots, unlike in The Avengers. Rand returns to New York fifteen years later, with immense power and strength in his right fist. Instead, he is taken in by the inhabitants of K’un-Lun, who teach him in their mystical ways. Tweaking his story from the comics, Danny Rand – the son of wealthy parents – is presumed dead in a plane crash. Like the other Marvel shows before it, it’s set in modern New York, and features characters that are largely grounded in reality.

Constructed in the nineteenth century and situated inside Central Park, the Bethesda Fountain – with its Angel of the Waters statue – is one of the most recognisable elements of New York City.
