Marvel continues to push forward with their next series, as Luke Cage continues to film in New York City. According to Marvel's website, it was announced today that Scott Buck was revealed at the showrunner for Marvel's upcoming series.

“Scott came in with a take on Iron Fist that quite simply knocked us off our feet,” said Executive Producer/Head of Marvel Television, Jeph Loeb. “We always look for the most creative minds in the field to help us bring our heroes to life, and with Scott we’ve found someone that can deliver yet another great series in the ongoing story of The Defenders.”

Buck was a producer and writer on both Dexter and Six Feet Under. At this point in time, there's still no timeline for when Iron Fist will hit Netflix. Daredevil season two hits in spring 2016 with Luke Cage following later in the year.
