Finn Jones, the actor who will play the lead in the upcoming Netflix show Marvel's "Iron Fist", may have given us a massive spoiler on his Instagram account regarding the identity of one of the characters.
You will probably miss it, as the post was immediately deleted by Finn Jones afterwards. But luckily for you, we have transcribed it word by word, so here you go:
"Daniel, wait. Do you know the secret of forever? I want to tell you something my father once told me. Decapitation, asphyxiation, blunt trauma, strangulation...any number of paths to a single result. Your heart stops beating. Don't you see? All death comes from the heart. Armor yourself...make your body hard and keep your heart soft. If you can protect your heart, you will never die. This is the secret of forever. You may feel like an outsider now...but one day, if you earn it, you will be invited to eat the fruit of immortality. And then you will truly be among us."
For hardcore Marvel fans, these words would be familiar as it is from the fictional quote of weapon master of K'un-L'un, Lei- Kung the Thunderer. The story goes that when young Daniel Rand's (Iron fist) father found the city of K'un L'un when he was a young boy which became his home until he left for the United States. It is here where he married and had a son they named Daniel. Long story short, Daniel's father returns to seek Ku'n L'un again, this time with his family. But things went awry as his parents both die horribly during the trip while a young Daniel makes his way to K'un Lu'n. He was then apprenticed by Lei Kung the Thunder.
There are only two possibilities with that Instagram spoiler post. One is that Finn Jones probably just quoted a post he just happens to like or we could just get one of the juiciest and mystical origin story on TV.
Marvel's "Iron Fist" is slated to premiere in 2017 on Netflix.
