According to the latest issue of Production Weekly, site that provides listings of pre-production or in-production projects for film professionals, a show titled Daredevil Reboot is included. The news is also reported by IGN. Reportedly, the show is to begin its production as a Disney+ MCU series.
Kevin Feige, the head of Marvel Studios, and Chris Gary, are mentioned as producers of the reboot. Feige worked in many well known Marvel materials such as Spider-Man: No Way Home, Eternals, and Avengers: End Game. Gary is most known for his work Blackballed and The Perks of Being a Wall Flower.
The original Marvel’s Daredevil ran from 2015 to 2018 with three seasons and 39 episodes. It features the story of Matt Murdock, a lawyer who has another identity, the Daredevil. As he encounters the antagonist Wilson Fisk, Murdock unveils conspiracies and crimes under the surface. The series received multiple nominations from the Saturn Award and the Screen Actors Guild Award.
Since its cancellation, Daredevil fans are hoping for the continuation of the series. Last year, the character Daredevil made a cameo appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home. The plot and direction of the reboot remain unknown, so it’s unclear whether the reboot series will tightly follow the original story or make some changes.
Charlie Cox played Daredevil in the original series, The Defenders, and Spider-Man: No Way Home. Prior to portraying Murdock, he was known for portraying Jonathan Hellyer Jones in the Academy-nominated film The Theory of Everything.
More details about the reboot has yet to be revealed. So far, no actor has officially joined the cast of the show. The synopsis listed for the show appears to be based on descriptions of the original Daredevil Netflix series.
