Netflix Cancels 'Iron Fist' After Two Seasons
Despite its significantly improved second season.
According to reports, Netflix has decided to cancel its exclusive Marvel series Iron Fist after just two seasons.
Coming shortly after the release of the second season, the cancellation is quite a surprise for fans of the show as the latest season showed significant improvements. Despite a decent following, Iron Fist faced a rough start when many launched claims of “whitewashing” the source material. Iron Fist is now the first Marvel show to be canceled by Netflix, which opens up questions for the streaming platform’s other superhero shows and the accompanying The Defenders miniseries.
