Iron Fist Season 2: Alice Eve & Simone Missick on Typhoid Mary and Filming the Action

We spoke to Alice Eve & Simone Missick about making Iron Fist season 2, Typhoid Mary and why the action in season 2 will be bigger and better.

One of the many shows that hosted a panel at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con was Marvel and Netflix’s Iron Fist. If you haven’t heard the news, the second season will start streaming Friday, September 7th, Alice Eve‘s mysterious character will be Typhoid Mary, and the Daughters of the Dragon will be an official team - that’s the badass duo of Colleen (Jessica Henwick) and Misty (Simone Missick). In addition, according to the show's synopsis, Danny Rand (Finn Jones) is going to step up his mission to protect New York City but, “a sinister plot twist threatens his very identity and he must conquer his villains to protect the town and people he holds close to his heart.”

Shortly before hitting the Comic-Con stage to promote the show, I got to sit down with Alice Eve and Simone Missick for an exclusive interview at the Collider Studio. During the wide-ranging Iron Fist interview they talked about making the second season, how Typhoid Mary starts out very innocent, how season two has two main villains, why they shot the big action sequence in episode 205 twice, why the stunt coordinator didn’t want to use stunt doubles, how the action is bigger and better than the first season, and so much more.

Finally, towards the end of the interview, they played “Ice Breakers”. If you haven’t yet seen it, it’s a fun game that includes questions like which TV show you would want to play a guest spot on, favorite sci-fi/fantasy movie, which film scared you as a kid, what you collect, if you own any movie/TV show props, what’s your phone background photo, and more.
