ReplyDeleteThis is good replacement. I was thinking that if Sinister Six was aimed for spring 2017 that Goddard might had to depart the show halfway at least.
ReplyDeleteDeKnight did right moves on the last two seasons of Spartacus that i liked, and i think he should have had more credits for.
I always found it a bit odd Drew was attached to the Sony Marvel universe and the MCU, he will be missed but Steven has a great resume as well so I am delighted to see him with a new show.
ReplyDeleteI like this change, liked his work on Buffy/Angel and later Spartacus.
ReplyDeleteHe hasn't totally left but will be there as extra support. I think the 2 of them will work well together, I loved both their work in Buffy
ReplyDeleteHe's awesome, so I have faith the show's in good hands.
