David Wenham Cast in Iron Fist

Marvel has cast David Wenham (Return of the King, 300) in Iron Fist as Harold Meachum. Harold is described as a corporate man who worked with Danny's parents when they died. Showrunner Scott Buck commented,

I’m very excited to have David as our Harold Meachum. David is capable of displaying raw, visceral strength as well as extremely keen intelligence. This will add up to a character of complex depth who will keep us off balance all season.

Marvel head of television Jeph Loeb said,

David brings both a vulnerability and a danger to his many diverse roles. This key quality creates a gravitas our series requires as Danny unravels the secrets behind Rand Enterprises.
