Marvel Studios may be planning more MCU for the small screen

Good question. I don't think they've even released a trailer for House of Cards yet and its third season premieres on February 27.

 

And they just released the first teaser trailer for Marco Polo a month ago, and the main trailer 3 weeks ago. So I guess it'll be quite a while before we see a trailer for DD.

 

Comic Book Resources just posted this tweet from Daredevil showrunner Steven S. DeKnight:

So it sounds like they are done filming. Hopefully that means they'll start releasing more info.
EW has also released a couple of new photos and some comments from DeKnight.

That article calls Affleck's DD "a bomb", except it wasn't, not financially. Underperformer, maybe but it was not a bomb on it's $78m budget making $180m WW. There was talk of a sequel but Affleck didn't want to do it if I recall correctly.

Mike Colter has been cast as Luke Cage.

 

I actually liked Daredevil. It wasn't perfect, but it was enjoyable to me, even the non Director's Cut version (although the DC was a bit better). Honestly, the only big thing I didn't like was Bullseye, who just wasn't right. Besides that, I thought it was decent. It could have been better, sure, but I liked what we got, and I think Affleck did a good job as Daredevil.

 

Daredevil release date announced, it's coming a month earlier than I expected!

Spoiler: DD release date

April 10

 

Squee!

 

Wait a minute... The part of Manhattan that image is focusing on is nowhere near Hell's Kitchen. It seems to be much more to the southeast, maybe around Greenwich Village or something?

Then again, Hell's Kitchen is an upscale neighborhood these days, better known as Clinton, so Daredevil's dark-and-gritty portrayal of it doesn't really work anymore anyway. Maybe the show isn't so localized. (Although I still think they could justify it being more run-down in the MCU due to damage sustained in the Chitauri invasion and an economic downturn in its aftermath.)

I think you are putting too much literal thought into that image.

A month earlier than I thought as well. May had been kicked around. I'm very eager for this!! Does AoS run straight through, not skipping any weeks, when it returns in March? If not maybe DD debuts in a skip week(s)? Allowing all die hard parties to digest it then AoS returns, AoU hits theaters----aaahhhhhh!!

Agent Carter, Agents of Shield, Daredevil, Age of Ultron, Ant-Man--so much packed into 7 months that's just Marvel Studios!! Comic Con hits where I bet we will get CA:Civil War footage and then AoS returns for S3 to wrap up 2015!! The follow-up Netflix series AKA Jessica Jones, is that slated for a Fall/Winter '15 debut?? I haven't heard that I can recall.

 

April 10? Fantastic! So much sooner than I expected. I cannot wait.

 

Time to request a vacation day...

 

It pretty much has to. If it skips more than a week or two, it won't finish until June.

I wouldn't be shocked if Alias shows up before the fall tv season. It may be late summer, perhaps just after Ant-Man hits.

 

The latest word, disappointingly, is that the Netflix series are expected to come out roughly a year apart. Which means we wouldn't see the Defenders crossover until 2019.

 

Well, um, crap! What does this likely mean in terms of deciding a second season on any of them? Not getting a second season of DD till 2020 just seems like a bad strategy.

Intersplice a S2 into say the same year Luke Cage debuts(2017?). Jessica Jones S2 the year of Iron Fist(2018) and so forth??

A bit puzzled at the strategy involved here unless these were always, from the start, intended to be one and done singular mini-series.

 

The folks at Netflix seem to think that all of the shows are eligible for renewal...

 

I certainly hope that does not turn out to be the case.

 

Yeah, I am a little disappointed that they're spacing them out so far. I wonder if they'll do that for every season of each one. I know some shows on some of the cable channels have gone years between seasons, but it would suck to have to wait three or four years between each season on a regular basis.
