Marvel Studios is preparing to start production on the
Daredevil Netflix show, which will happen this summer in New York City. The studio will then move on to the Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist adaptations, which will culminate in The Defenders mini-series.
While appearing on Kevin Smith's Fatman on Batman podcast, Marvel Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada spoke about
the Daredevil show and confirmed that it will place in Marvel's Cinematic
universe.
“There
will be some interconnectivity, much like the movies. They will exist within
the cinematic universe again, so this is all the same world as S.H.I.E.L.D. and
the Avengers.”
These are great news! If Daredevil (and i assume the
other characters as well), inhabits the MCU, then there is the possibility that
maybe he (and the others) could make the jump into the big screen. But if that
is or could be the case, then casting will play a massive role.
“The
scripts are coming in. They are pretty fantastic. They’re really emotional.
They’re very, very original. But at the same time, it is Daredevil. It is Matt
Murdock. We will eventually, hopefully start casting really, really soon, but
I’m very, very excited about it.”
Quesada then talked about how the Daredevil and rest
of the shows will differ from their Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
“Although
these are superhero stories, this is different now. This is the street
level…this is the street level noir side of the Marvel Universe. Something that
you haven’t really, really seen in any of our Marvel movies. And probably more
ground level, than I think you’ve seen. This is not like us doing Batman, Dark
Knight or any of that stuff. This is very Marvel doing street level
superheroes.”
Drew Goddard is the man behind the Marvel/Netflix
Daredevil series as showrunner, writer, and director.
