More casting: http://www.fandompost.com/2014/06/20/rosario-dawson-boards-daredevil-netflix-series/

She might be Elektra.  In the comics, IIRC, Murdock (before being Daredevil) gets her father killed during a kidnapping attempt.  That could play into what they're saying about her role. 

2020 will be the year I gave up all hope.

More casting... Deborah Ann Woll (True Blood's red headed vampire Jessica) is Karen Page, Daredevil's Secretary.

I wish there had been some acting in True Blood so I might know if she'd be any good...

To be fair, there is no way we could ever know if she can act or not based on the writing for True Blood.

True Blood has writing?

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something.  We need to stop this fucking planet right now and sort some shit out. -Kail

She is one of the better actors on that show which is akin to being one of the better ballerinas in all of Ohio.

I was hoping that when I read "red head" and "True Blood" it was going to be the vampire queen.+

Lots of comic con stuff coming out and holy fuck does it look promising.

Of note, Rosario Dawson to play Night Nurse.  The black costume is his "first" they said and looking to be brutal as evidenced by blood stained hand in poster.

Daredevil ought to be brutal if they are taking the right approach. Even the Mark Waid stuff that's going on in the comics now doesn't pull punches.

April 10 release date.  I'm loving everything I've heard about it so far - and I already have that day off work and no plans.  Assuming they release all 13 episodes at once, I'm doing a marathon.

I could have sworn I heard that this was going to be one of the first "week to week" releases by Netflix.

I have not heard that and most of the articles say something like, "assuming the full 13 episodes are released at once..."  If you do come across some evidence that it will release slowly, please let me know...

That should also be around the time of the Game of Thrones premiere for Season 5, which usually means a marathon game day / prior season rewatch at my place.  I could be watching 24 hours of TV in 3 days...

Everything I've read makes it sound like the episodes will all go up at once. In fact they said at one point that knowing that they weren't doing a weekly show allowed them to structure the writing differently from how they would have done things if they were doing a normal weekly TV series.

15 second Teaser. Full trailer is coming tomorrow. Also says in the description that all episodes will be available on the April 10th release.

Everybody is sick of this teaser for the teaser bullshit. We need to stop tweeting, facebooking, and forum posting them or the public relations people are just going to keep releasing more.

And none of our lives will be negatively impacted in any sort of way so I'm not sure what the problem is. Yeah, the teaser footage is usually pretty pointless, but as a way of letting people know in advance that they have a trailer coming out tomorrow I don't find it somehow offensive.

I agree, though I have never been a fan of Daredevil I'm liking the first couple of episodes I have watched a lot.

I like how they've toned down the comic book excesses of the character and made him into a low-rent Batman without the toys. Without the over-the-top supernatural abilities, he comes across as a man of dedication and character in both his daily life and behind the mask. There's a few great stunts and camerawork...


...but it looks like most of the money went into hiring capable actors, directors and writers.

If I have a complaint - if - it's that Fisk comes across more insecure than I'd like. Tempering his hubris gives the character some emotional weight, but it dulls the unstoppable threat he represents in the comics.
