2. Garrett Hedlund

IronFist1

Garrett Hedlund impressed most after taking on a lead role in Tron: Legacy a few years back, but hasn’t really given another big budget blockbuster a chance since. While he has in fact been linked to the role of Kyle Reese in Alan Taylor’s (Thor: The Dark World) Terminator 5, a superhero role has eluded the actor up until now, and this could be the right project AND character for Hedlund as of right now. He’s still a big enough name to help bring the fairly little-known character attention from the mainstream audience, and certainly has the right look and build for the other half of the Heroes for Hire. Also, it’s worth noting that Danny Rand is the millionaire owner of Rand Industries as well as a protector of Hell’s Kitchen, and Hedlund most definitely has the right amount of sheer charisma to effectively portray every facet of Iron Fist.
