Exactly one month away from the release date, Netflix has premiered their official Daredevil trailer.  And man does it look gritty and good.  Showrunner Steven S. DeKnight wasn’t kidding around when he said the new series would evoke a 1970s New York feel.  It’s not bereft of all humor though.  To lighten up the mood and also serve double-duty to remind people that this falls in the same world as all the other Marvel Cinematic Universe movies, one of the villains makes a brief reference to some characters we’ll be seeing this summer.  Check out the exciting trailer for Daredevil:

I’m sure that in the weeks ahead, we’ll be getting a variety of shorter trailers whetting our appetites for the exclusive April 10th premiere — of which all 13 episodes will be released all on the same day.  And I thought binge watching Breaking Bad was … er … bad.  Now that you’ve seen the official trailer, how do you feel about this newest live-action iteration of the Man Without Fear?

Netflix’s Daredevil is being executive produced by series showrunner Steven S. DeKnight, Drew Goddard, and Jeph Loeb, and will star Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock / Daredevil, Elden Henson as Franklin “Foggie” Nelson, Vincent D’Onofrio as Wilson Fisk / The Kingpin, Deborah Ann Woll as Karen Page, Rosario Dawson as Claire Temple, and Ayelet Zurer as Vanessa Marianna.

Daredevil will be one of four Marvel/Netflix shows centered around events taking place in Hell’s Kitchen.  The other three will be Luke Cage (with Mike Colter recently announced to be in the title role), Iron Fist, and Jessica Jones (with Krysten Ritter recently announced to be in the title role).  Like the cinematic universe, all four characters from each show will later converge together in a miniseries event called The Defenders — another superhero team akin to The Avengers.

Daredevil is set to premiere on Netflix on Friday, April 10, 2015.
