Disney gets Daredevil

Seems Disney may now have control of the character known as Daredevil. I hope that is a good thing, and that it may pave the way for more "Daredevil" movies, especially since superhero movies all seem to be doing so well these days.

So, does anyone here remember the "Daredevil" movie of a few years ago starring Ben Affleck and Jennifer Warner (now Mrs. Ben Afflect)?? I think I saw it one time and have totally forgotten what it was about. Might be a good time now to rewatch that one. Although a new "Daredevil" movie of any type will probably be entirely different than the last one.

Yeah, I was pretty excited to read this. The last Daredevil was workable, I guess, but in the right hands I think a really killer Daredevil movie could be made. Matt Murdock is actually a pretty interesting character with a lot of depth, from the little Daredevil reading I've done. I'm excited to see what the future holds.

This is good news. The Daredevil movie was okay (the director's cut was much, much better than the theatrical version), but Marvel has generally put a higher level of quality in their films. Of course, the character joined the Avengers in the comics not too long ago, so there will probably be a lot of speculation about that happening in the films now as well.

Agreed on all points, Icecypher. Michael Clarke Duncan was awesome in the role, despite my initial skepticism, and really helped to open my eyes to casting decisions. I hope Marvel gets FF back, too, they're Marvel's First Family, after all!
