Season 2 "Iron Fist" confirmed before "Avengers: Infinity War"

Fans of Marvel's Cinematic Universe have asked huge questions about the timeline after Avengers: Infinity War, with other series like Iron fist and Luke Cage hit Netflix after Thanos broke half of the existence.

Now, we finally have some clarity on these events because Iron fist The show rider Raven Metzner revealing the series serves as a prelude to the events of War of infinity. While answering questions from fans on Twitter, Metzner explained that this decision came from high levels of Marvel Television.

Explaining that it's a Jeph Loeb decision makes sense, as the Marvel Television series on Netflix continues to not be bothered by movies in the MCU, but make the connections when it suits you. Just like the case of Jessica Jones's overpowered mother trapped in the raft, who made her debut in Captain America: Civil War.

But with the case where Thanos has torn half of the Earth's population, this story would probably be submerged and dominate any kind of story event that would occur in the Netflix series. This would remove any narrative impetus that each series has captured, and would frustrate any attempt to tell their own original story as Marvel fans wonder how they might handle the Thanos metaphysical genocide.

Instead, Marvel Television's boss, Loeb, made the smart decision to put the new series ahead of War of infinity, allowing them to stay separate from big screen events. Just like Iron fist, it's safe to say that Daredevil and The punisher will follow the first.

"Most of the time, our stories will take place BEFORE Thanos clicks on his fingers," Loeb previously wrote on Reddit. "A lot of things have to do with the production and when we tell our stories about the release of the movies.So stay there.I remember that in the comics, one of my favorite stories was the war KREE-SKRULL … that was universal, but in X-Men, no mention, huh … and everything went well in the end! "

There have been discussions about the inclusion of Defenders characters in the film, as scriptwriter Stephen McFeely once said, but they have finally voted against it.

"In such a big film, we certainly had the conversation:" Should we put Luke Cage in this situation? Here we are in New York … "That sort of thing, as you could probably say, it would just be a glorified cameo at this point," McFeely said to collider. "We are trying to honor the MCU films and if we then say to the audience," Oh, you should also have a good knowledge of this streaming service here, to which you can or can not subscribe. "C & # Is really asking for a lot, we are already asking a lot. "

Iron fist Season 2 is now streaming on Netflix. Avengers: Infinity War is now available on Blu-ray, DVD and digital HD.
