The Living Weapon vs. The Steel Serpent, Round Two.
Netflix has released the first full trailer for the second season of Iron Fist, based on the Marvel Comics character. The two minute, fifteen second trailer teases the long-awaited arrival of Iron Fist's traditional yellow mask and the return of Davos, the villainous Steel Serpent.
The trailer opens in New York City, with Iron Fist/Danny Rand (Finn Jones) taking over as the city's guardian following the presumed death of Daredevil in the final episode of The Defenders crossover miniseries. "You have not been home for days," says Colleen Wing (Jessica Henwick) in a voiceover as we see Danny in a hoodie and a mask covering his lower face taking on several armed criminals. "You barely sleep when you are home. How many times a night you light that fist up?"
In a separate scene, we see Colleen and Danny talking. "I see how much you're pushing yourself," she tells him.
"Just trying to keep the peace," replies Danny.
In another exchange, Danny tells someone, possibly Colleen, "What am I supposed to do? I didn't ask for the Iron Fist."
"I'm fighting for what I believe in, whatever the cost," Colleen remarks to Danny before we see her fighting an unknown woman. "What are you fighting for?"
"I'm trying to do what's right," replies Danny.
We cut to another scene, where Danny meets Davos (Sacha Dhawan) at night. "I didn't expect to see you here, brother," says Davos. "We have family matters to discuss."
A different scene has Colleen telling Danny, "You and Davos, you will train together." We see a sequence in a temple, where Danny and Davos are facing off against one another and wearing yellow Iron Fist masks.
"I fought my brother," Danny says in a voiceover. "There is no changing what happened."
Davos tells Danny, "You feel that you can just walk through this world as if it belongs to you. The Iron Fist...It's not a weapon to be held, it's a weapon to be used." We see Davos training several disciples as Joy Meachum (Jessica Stroup) watches, followed by Danny and a hooded woman finding the decayed corpse of another Iron Fist. We then see the hooded woman attacking Danny in the subway.
"Now you'll give me what's mine, brother," Davos tells Danny. "You...will suffer."
As we Davos and Danny fighting in a separate scene, Colleen remarks to Danny, "The Iron Fist...that was one of them."
Davos is shown having a glowing red Iron Fist of his own, which he uses to punch through a brick wall.
"We can stop him," Danny responds to Colleen, "but I need help."
Enter Misty Knight (Simone Missick), now rocking a bionic arm after the events in Luke Cage Season 2. "You're not alone," Misty tells Colleen as we see Misty and Danny sparring, "but you can't save everyone."
"I can't just sit here and do nothing," Danny says in a voiceover as we see him and Davos fighting once again.
"I have become the thing you never had the strength to be," a bloodied Davos tells Danny, who lies on the ground before him.
"History doesn't decide what happens next," Colleen remarks in a voiceover as we see the masked Danny use his Iron Fist on an armored car, totaling it. "We do."
In the trailer's final scene, we see Danny and Colleen having dinner at a Chinese restaurant. "We should do this more often," Danny remarks as we see fleeting images of both of them fighting bad guys. "Dinner out, a movie. Date night."
"Mm-hmm," replies Colleen as she sips her coffee.
