New DAREDEVIL Netflix Show Images Reveal a Lawyer By Day, Superhero By Night

A couple of new Daredevil Netflix show images
have landed online, giving fans a new look at the
upcoming limited series from Marvel and the
streaming service. Spartacus alum Steven S.
DeKnight acts as showrunner on the upcoming
series, though Marvel TV chief Jeph Loeb (who
also oversees Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the
upcoming Agent Carter ) is still intimately involved
in crafting Marvel’s first foray into Netflix
territory. In a new piece in EW, Loeb describes
Daredevil as “a crime drama first, superhero show
second”, and while DeKnight maintains that the
series is certainly “grittier and edgier” than what
Marvel has done before, the target audience
remains all-encompassing so they’re “not looking
to push it to extreme violence or gratuitous
nudity.”
Check out the new Daredevil Netflix show images
after the jump. The series stars Charlie Cox ,
Vincent D’Onofrio , Deborah Ann Woll, Elden
Henson, Toby Moore, Bob Gunton, Ayelet Zurer,
and Vondie Curtis-Hall . Daredevil will premiere
on Netflix sometime in 2015.
The EW piece—which debuted the following
images—notes that Daredevil will indeed get his
iconic red costume in the show, but in the
beginning he’ll be wearing these black robes
inspired by the graphic novel Man Without Fear .
Dardevil is the first in a series of interconnected
Marvel Netflix shows, with A.K.A. Jessica Jones
set to premiere in 2016 followed by Iron Fist ,
Luke Cage , and ultimately a team-up miniseries
called The Defenders. As the Daredevil premiere
date approaches, Marvel is putting the pieces
together for Jessica Jones , recently casting
Krysten Ritter in the lead role. They’re also
readying the January premiere of ABC’s Agent
Carter , another network series that will act as a
companion to Agents of S.H.E.L.D. (and bridge
the gap during its winter hiatus), serving
to expand the studio’s branding reach even
further.
