As the releases of Iron Fist and Luke Cage grow closer, there seem to be more and more rumors swirling around about the shows, and it’s hard to figure out which ones seem real but are actually fake, which ones are obviously fake, and which ones have grains of truth in them but are mostly fake (completely real rumors are made-up fairy tales).
As was reported earlier, Shang Chi is rumored to be appearing in the upcoming Iron Fist series for Netflix. However, that rumor is… er, rumored to be false. The Hashtag Report, which originally reported that Finn Jones was cast as Iron Fist (correctly), was the source of the Shang Chi rumor, but Bleeding Cool has now posted a report that Shang-Chi will NOT be in Iron Fist.
All of this is really confusing.
The best lesson to learn from this is that something called “Report” is no less of a rumor than something called “Rumor”. Because these reports are directly conflicting and now we have no clue what to expect.
