Charlie Cox Cast as Marvel’s Daredevil

Charlie Cox will be the Marvel Entertainment’s upcoming Netflix series “Daredevil.”

“Daredevil” is just one of four new shows that will debut on Netflix from Marvel Entertainment which also include “Iron Fist,” “Luke Cage,” “Jessica Jones,” and a mini-series event of “The Defenders” that brings them all together. Production is scheduled to begin on the series this summer with a target release in 2015.

Blinded as a young boy but imbued with extraordinary senses, Matt Murdock fights against injustice by day as a lawyer, and by night as the super hero Daredevil in modern day Hell’s Kitchen, New York City. Steven S. DeKnight will serve as showrunner and will produce alongside Drew Goddard and Jeph Loeb. Goddard also scripted the first two episodes. The 13-episode series will premiere on Netflix in 2015.
