Film rights for Daredevil officially back with Marvel!

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Back in August it was reported that Fox had until October 10th of 2012 to get a Daredevil film into production or the rights would revert back to Marvel. In case you haven’t noticed, October came and went without any news about a new film or if the rights were back in Marvel’s hands. It was assumed that the rights had been returned to Marvel but now there’s confirmation that the company has one of their characters back in the fold.

Newsarama spoke with Marvel Studios’ president of production Kevin Feige recently and at the end of the conversation asked him if the rights were indeed back with Marvel and he said yes, they were.  However, Feige did not say if there are any plans for the horned hero at this time.

So what does this mean for the “Man Without Fear”? Daredevil is more of a street level crime-fighter and not a great team player so I doubt they’d make room for him for future films involving The Avengers but there’s always a chance they’ll try to push him in. Daredevil is a much darker than the other heroes that have appeared in Marvel’s film universe and if they want to do the character justice Marvel better make damn sure we don’t get a film similiar to the Ben Affleck abortion that was essentially a 133 minute commercial for the movie’s f*cking soundtrack. God damn do I hate Evanescence.

How would you like to see Marvel use Daredevil?
