Yeah. I assume they're adapting that Daredevil story but cutting out Elektra (probably to introduce her later). Which then means he gets his red costume (skipping the yellow version) along with his proper name (Daredevil) right at the end.
I feel like Arrow would've been similar if it were shown on Netflix and not on The CW. Both seem to suggest an evolution of the main protagonist, with Matt Murdock going through costumes and evolving his look as much as Oliver does the same in becoming Green Arrow. By being on Netflix, though, I think Daredevil could hands down become the best CBTV series so far.
By the way, most shows involving comic book characters should rely on that idea of evolving the character. I think Spider-Man would be a fantastic character to use on that template if a show could ever be made using a strict budget even on Netflix.
Plus, who says she won't make a surprise appearance..? ;)
I can see Marvel do a thing like that. Cast an actress, film a short scene to introduce her, or maybe a larger part, and keep her appearance and casting secret.
However, this is all just wishfull thinking. They probably want to keep her for an eventual second season (or maybe even her own show!).

is that his suit? doesn't look very badass
ReplyDeleteI think he will get the iconic red suit by the end of the season
ReplyDeleteIt's his first costume from his more modernized origin story. Daredevil: Man Without Fear
ReplyDeleteoh ok so it's before he officially becomes Daredevil?

ReplyDeleteLooks cool.
ReplyDeleteI'm still gutted there's no Elektra in this.
ReplyDeleteIn season 1. Take it easy, season 2 looks bound to happen at some point after The Defenders.

I hope we get a premiere date on this show sooner rather than later.
ReplyDeleteA trailer would be nice too.
