Another member of the Wu-Tang Clan will contribute to another member of The Defenders.

After Method Man made a cameo in and contributed a song (“Bulletproof Love“) to Luke Cage (on top of writing an issue of Ghost Rider), it has been revealed that the RZA has directed an episode of Iron Fist.

During and Extra Live Q&A on Facebook Live, Finn Jones — who plays the titular character on the series — said that he listened to a “lot of ’90s hip hop” to help develop his character, including De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, the Jurassic 5 and the Wu, before revealing that Bobby Digital directed episode six of the series.

RZA made his directorial debut in 2012 with the martial arts film The Man With The Iron Fists, and Jones hinted at his episode of Iron Fist — titled “Immortal Emerges From Cave” — leaning heavy on kung-fu action.

Iron Fist arrives March 17th on Netflix.
