The creative process forDaredevil: Born Againwas not exactly smooth.
Partway through filming season 1,Marvel Studios replaced the original showrunnersand overhauled their plans for the series.
Light on angst, its a standalone adventure where Matt Murdock never actually dons the Daredevil suit.
An entire series in this format might not have gone down well with fans of Netflixs grim-and-gritty atmosphere.
Chief among them is pacing.
Rather than actively seeking out trouble, Matt finds himself in this scenario by pure coincidence.
Hes at the bank to apply for a loan, meeting with a manager who happens to be Ms.
Marvels dad, Yusuf Khan.
We soon learn that the thieves are here for something specific, hidden away in a safe deposit box.
If the robbers discover that he cant help them break in, his life is forfeit.
Despite its goofier elements, this episode is as Daredevil as Daredevil can be.
He still runs compulsively toward danger, and lies to his friends and coworkers about what hes doing.
