After his notorious Boba Fett theory, Patton Oswalt is back with another pitch: give IronFist's Misty Knight and Colleen Wing their own spinoff. 'I’m predicting that someone at Marvel will realize what they’ve got and they will run with it.'
Actor and comedian Patton Oswalt pitches a spinoff to Marvel's Iron Fist. Oswalt is an outspoken fan of comics and geek culture who has been lucky enough to see his career grant him opportunities within that realm. Just last year, he co-created and starred in Marvel's M.O.D.O.K. and even appeared in the mid-credits scene of Eternals as Pip the Troll. Oswalt has also appeared in Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Oswalt garnered attention earlier this year when The Book of Boba Fett featured a scene detailing how Boba Fett survived the Sarlacc Pit, which was eerily similar to a prediction he made on NBC's Parks and Recreation years earlier. In a 2013 episode of Parks and Recreation called"Article Two," Oswalt's Garth Blundin led a notorious filibuster where he described how Boba Fett would pull himself from the Sarlacc Pit.
"I think that Marvel is going to realize that they had an amazing franchise in their laps for free in their Netflix shows with Misty Knight and Colleen Wing, those two actors. Someone in five years, hopefully sooner, will realize, ‘Do that!’ A low-stakes, gritty, street-level superhero noir with those two characters, Misty Knight and Colleen Wing. They’re sitting right there! So I’m predicting that someone at Marvel will realize what they’ve got and they will run with it.
Misty Knight, played by Simone Missick, is an NYPD officer who made her debut on Luke Cage before appearing in Iron Fist and The Defenders. Jessica Henwick's Colleen Wing, a martial arts instructor and expert, also made her initial appearance on Luke Cage before becoming a more prominent character in Iron Fist and The Defenders.
When the entire slate of Marvel Netflix shows was canceled, it dealt a blow to many loyal fans, leaving characters like Misty and Colleen dead in the water. However, it seems as though the shows may be getting a new lease on life. Charlie Cox, who first played Daredevil for the Netflix series, was recently featured in Spider-Man: No Way Home, with Vincent D'Onofrio also reprising his role as Kingpin for Disney+'s Hawkeye.
