Recently, the LA Times reported that Frank Miller (300, Sin City) and Jason Stratham (The Transporter) were mulling over visions of a new Daredevil movie at Comic Con.
The 2003 Daredevil movie, starring Ben Affleck, was a bomb. And, much like Ang Lee’s 2003 “Hulk,” most people have been seeking a reboot of the Marvel Comics’ hero.
Stratham is hoping to take the mantle of Daredevil. While sitting down with Frank for a breather from SD Comic Con, the actor said, “Absolutely, just give me the chance, I would love to be Daredevil.”
When asked about choosing to play the role of Bullseye over the “Man Without Fear,” Stratham quickly retorted, “Forget Bullseye, I want to be Daredevil!” Miller nodded. “I think he should be Daredevil too.”
Now, let’s shift gears to Frank. He will probably hope to direct the one character he’s most known for besides Batman.
Ok. Stratham as Daredevil, I’m interested. Frank Miller directing… I’ll pass.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m a huge Frank Miller fan-boy. But as much as I love Frank Miller the writer, I’m sick of Frank Miller the director. If I have to sit through another stylized movie like “300,” “Sin City,” and inevitably “The Spirit,” I’ll gag on my own vomit.
that would be terrible casting. Maybe he’d work as bullseye, but daredevil? NO. no HELL NO!
