Bosco685 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I noticed this update was completely missed So who is Rosario Dawson going to play? http://marvel.com/news/tv/2014/6/20/22725/rosario_dawson_joins_marvels_daredevil_for_netflix This came up quite a few posts back. It just gets lost after a while because there have been so many posts. At one point, some were thinking she is Elektra. I don't think Marvel has this character back yet until 2015. But maybe they worked something out during the Daredevil rights transfer, and moved that date up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarveySwick Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 It was discussed in another thread HERE. This is a case of multiple threads popping up and some discussion being lost. I'm glad we can keep everything updated going forward in this thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romanheart Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I've said it on FB so I'll say it here too. As much as I like DD I really want to see a Punisher series from netflix with Walking Dead level violence and morel ambiguity. Sounds good to me. But HBO would be better. Spartacus level of violence would be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Vincent D’Onofrio Finds Inspiration In Frank Miller's Kingpin ------------------------- How much did you know about the character before signing on? I knew a bit about Wilson Fisk. I had seen the movies. I saw other interpretations. But for this, they really wanted everything to be fresh. They’re operating like they have been doing their movies. I’m finding most of my inspiration for Fisk coming from the old artwork, artists like Frank Miller. Your new friend Downey must have been very excited you got the role. He was thrilled. My wife actually texted him a photo of me dressed as Kingpin and we got a very, very excited text back. ------------------------- That is so cool how the actors making themselves part of the Marvel Universe may tease one another about a role. Even better, D'Onofrio reading the Frank Miller material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Balls Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 + Dawson = Elektra Dawson I like the look of Rosario, but nothing really stands out to me of her performances. I can see her being the sassy, snappy one-linin' wise-crackin' Alpha Female - but I don't picture her as bringing anything serious to the role. But, I'm willing to give it a try either way. I'll just be glad when this stuff hits Netflix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarveySwick Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Thank God it's inspired more by Miller or Bendis' runs than Waid's. I enjoy Waid's for what it is - light and fun. But I loved the dark and gritty feel from Miller and even more from Bendis. This is going to be terrific! I can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eclipse Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 After Daredevil, they go straight to building then shooting luke cage, then repeat the cycle with Jessica jones, then the same with iron fist, then do the same with defenders. Its a 2 year process according to the construction coordinator I was talking to on the show. Oh and they might not be in that order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarveySwick Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Has Elektra been confirmed? I'm not sure, but I hope if they do confirm, it is not that Rosario playing her (thumbs u Elektra is Greek. Rosario is Puerto Rican and Afro-Cuban. She doesn't even resemble Elektra! I would hope they bring in another relative unknown actress to play Elektra rather than a well known name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romanheart Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I'm not going to get overexcited over casting for a tv show. They never have the budget to pull off the things a movie could do. You can hope for the best and be glad they're finally taking an interest in one of your favourite characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
