Marvel’s DAREDEVIL Renewed for Season 2

Movie News

With the first season of ‘Marvel’s Daredevil’ proving a smash success with both audiences and critics, Netflix and Marvel will continue to create further adventures of the Man Without Fear!

Doug Petrie (‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer,’ ‘American Horror Story’) and Marco Ramirez (‘Sons of Anarchy’), who worked closely with Executive Producers Steven S. DeKnight and Drew Goddard during the first season, will serve as showrunners for the second season. Petrie, Ramirez, Goddard (‘Cabin in the Woods’), and Jeph Loeb (‘Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’) will serve as Executive Producers.

“While previous commitments unfortunately prevent me from continuing on with Daredevil into its second season. I could not be happier that Doug Petrie and Marco Ramirez are carrying the torch,” sad DeKnight. “They were invaluable collaborators during our first season, and I for one can’t wait to see what they do with the show moving forward.”

‘Marvel’s Daredevil’ follows the journey of Matt Murdock, who was blinded as a young boy but imbued with extraordinary senses, now fighting against injustice by day as a lawyer, and by night as the super hero Daredevil in modern day Hell’s Kitchen, New York City. The series also stars Vincent D’Onofrio, Deborah Ann Woll, Elden Henson, Rosario Dawson, Ayelet Zurer, Bob Gunton, Vondie Curtis Hall, and Toby Leonard Moore.

‘Marvel’s A.K.A. Jessica Jones’ comes only to Netflix later this year, followed by ‘Marvel’s Luke Cage’ in 2016. Future series exclusively debuting on Netflix include ‘Marvel’s Iron Fist’ and ‘Marvel’s Defenders,’ a mini-series event that reimagines a team of self-sacrificing, heroic characters.
