So That’s Matt Murdock? And Whoa, Daredevil is No Longer Horny!

Netflix Daredevil300Reposted from our friends over on Amityville Now

Actually, the ‘look’ of both sides of Matt Murdock are pretty cool, as much as we can tell from the new pics just released by Marvel. But then everything about the new series being made for Netflix points the Cool-O-Meter to 11, including the casting of Rosario Dawson in a yet-to-be-explained role, Scott Glenn as Stick, and Vincent D’Onofrio as Kingpin (who says a few extra pounds can hurt a career? Not Vincent!). Three things to keep in mind…

  • Yeah, yeah, yeah, the black costume and the mask without eye-holes ain’t the red suit with the horns, but really—could it be? That had to ‘cool up’ Green Arrow’s costume and even took Constantine’s cigarette away. It hadda happen. And seriously: pretty cool ninja outfit, eh?
  • Doesn’t Charlie Cox look a whole lot like Michael C. Hall of Dexter in this shot? Or is it just that we really really wanted Michael C. Hall to get the role, so we think anybody who’s halfway appropriate looks like Michael C. Hall?
  • View the unseen Men in Black connection: D’Onofrio was the superalien cockroach in disguise in MIB I; Dawson was the intergalactic princess in disguise (though she didn’t know it) in MIB II. How long can it be before Will Smith and his cricket show up in Hell’s Kitchen?

Enjoy the optics:
