As you can see from the image above, Daredevil is pissed at being left out of all The Avengers coverage. Luckily we have a little bit of news on that front. In a recent interview with Tom Rothman, 2oth Century Fox’s CEO, Steve gleaned some info about the David Slade-directed reboot of Daredevil, notably:
“It’s in development; we’re working on the script.”
Not much to go on, but at least we now know who is working on the script. Deadline reports that David James Kelly is doing a rewrite for the script, one that appears to be based on Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli’s classic 1986 “Born Again” arc, spanning issues #227-233. The story centers on the Kingpin discovering Daredevil’s true identity which results in the hero’s life turning upside-down. While I’m fully expecting some sort of hero origin story to be worked in, I’m curious: who do you think should play Daredevil this time around?
