Here is Rand’s quote (by way of CBR.com):

“The thing [with] Danny is that we’re taking an ordinary kid with a lot of issues and we’re trying to iron those out first before getting to Danny as Iron Fist. And what we’ll [see] in Defenders is Danny coming to terms with being a superhero,” he said. “In The Defenders when he first starts, he doesn’t even know what a superhero is and then he meets those guys and he’s like ‘WHOA. This is cool,’ and by the end of it you kind of see Danny really coming to the grips with his responsibility in a much more mature way.”

We have yet to find out if these changes will affect the second season of Iron Fist, or if the show will be renewed for a second season at all.

So, what do you think? Are you excited to see Danny Rand as a more seasoned super hero? Let us know in the comments.
