Marvel keeps recruiting from Westeros. At NYCC 2026, Marvel Studios confirmed that Finn Jones will return as Danny Rand, aka Iron Fist, in *Daredevil: Born Again* Season 3. That makes him the **ninth** *Game of Thrones* actor to join a Marvel Studios project as a superhero, according to The Direct.

## Why Jones’s Return Matters?

Jones played Ser Loras Tyrell in the original HBO series. He’s no stranger to Marvel, having starred in Netflix’s *Iron Fist*, but this is his first Marvel Studios project. He’ll join Charlie Cox, Krysten Ritter and Mike Colter, which fans have taken as the long-awaited Defenders reunion.

## Who Has a Future, and Who Doesn’t?

Not every Westeros alum is guaranteed a comeback.

- **Pascal, Quinn and John-Kamen** look the safest, with all three tied to *Avengers: Doomsday*.
- **Harington’s** future is uncertain now that the *Blade* project has been put on ice.
- **Madden’s** Ikaris flew into the sun, which leaves little room for a return.
- **Clarke’s** *Secret Invasion* role is in limbo after the show’s lukewarm reception.
