DAREDEVIL: Charlie Cox to Headline New Netflix Series

DAREDEVIL — the Netflix/Marvel series about the comic character Matt Murdock, a blind lawyer by day who moonlights as a crime-fighter (and also the basis for the 2003 movie starring Ben Affleck) — has found its leading man: former BOARDWALK EMPIRE star Charlie Cox. The Hollywood Reporter first confirmed the news.

The series also underwent a showrunner change over the weekend as Drew Goddard (who wrote the show’s first two episodes) stepped down to focus on the Spider-Man spin-off movie, SINISTER SIX, while former SPARTACUS boss Steven S. DeKnight stepped up to take control of the series.
