If you’ve ever used the hashtags #SaveIronFist or #BringBackIronFist, take comfort in knowing that Finn Jones appreciates your messages. Jones, who played Danny Rand / Iron Fist for two seasons on Netflix, thoroughly enjoyed his time in the Marvel universe. Despite a poorly reviewed first season, Iron Fist made improvements in its sophomore season, but it wasn’t enough to save the show from cancelation.
Finn Jones: I think it was the fact that it was more of a psychological horror than a horror that relies on scares and typical horror tropes. I wasn’t really interested in doing a movie that felt like every other horror movie. This stood out to me because I haven’t seen a doppelganger movie in a long time. The psychological “stranger in a strange land,” Wicker Man-style vibe drew me to it.
No, I don’t think it’s either of them. I think he’s someone that’s struggling with his mental health. You see that he’s taking medication so he’s someone that’s trying to keep his shit together. He’s constantly battling with what his perception of reality is. Also, he’s constantly trying to be the good husband, the good father. He doesn’t want to be a failure. He wants to be someone that can support his wife and start a new life and raise a family.
I mean it doesn’t appeal to me at all. In fact, especially nowadays, I find horror movies to be incredibly uninteresting. I love early horror movies. The ’90s and ’80s horror movies were peak horror. Nowadays, horror movies just rely on tropes. I was interested in this horror movie because it didn’t rely on any of those tropes. It really got into the psychological aspect and built up a world and a tone that I just don’t think you see in horror movies these days.
I never think like that. I don’t think it’s helpful. The way that I see it, given the script that I have and the character that I have, I show up and I provide the best performance that I can given the circumstances that I’m under. With this movie, I didn’t know what it was going to be like. We were constantly changing that script on the day. We were constantly finessing it to try and make it the best possible movie we could make. But, we didn’t really know how it was going to turn out.
We live in a world where shows don’t get a lot of time to breathe anymore. I think that’s what happened to Iron Fist. Do you feel like you have unfinished business with that character after the cancellation?I’m not trying to rehash bad memories.
