Scott Buck to Run Iron Fist

Marvel has announced that they've hired Scott Buck (Dexter) to be showrunner of the upcoming Iron Fist Netflix show. Marvel head of television Jeph Loeb said,
Scott came in with a take on Iron Fist that quite simply knocked us off our feet. 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 commented,
I’ve always been drawn to writing complex, intriguing characters, and that’s what most excites me about the opportunity to bring Danny Rand and “Iron Fist” to life with Marvel on Netflix.
Marvel has also given a synopsis of the Iron Fist show.
Returning to New York City after being missing for years, Daniel Rand fights against the criminal element corrupting New York City with his incredible kung-fu mastery and ability to summon the awesome power of the fiery Iron Fist.
They haven't announced any of the other producers, writers, or directors and there is still no cast or premiere date (not even something as vague as a year).
