[on how he got in shape for Iron Fist] It was a lot of work. Before we started shooting, I was working in the dojo (a Japanese martial arts training school). I was doing two hours of martial arts, and two hours of weight training. I didn't want to bulk up; he's meant to be toned, more agile, and athletic, rather than a muscle-bound gym rat.
