We did a nearly frame by frame analysis of the first trailer for Marvel’s Daredevil Netflix series.
This is what we found…
This article contains potential spoilers for MarvelsDaredevilNetflix series.
Marvel finally let fans have a look at theDaredevilseries coming to Netflix.
Its safe to say…this looks nothing at all like anything weve seen from Marvel Studios so far.
Its an aspect of his character that has played heavily throughout his career.
At least…so far.
Well get to that in a minute.
Think about the insane, reality warping stuff this poor guy has to listen to on a weekly basis.
Anyway, that wasnt my point.
My real point is…in the comics, Matts Mom vanishes at an early age.
She ultimately becomes a nun.
I wonder if theres a chance that well see her in this series.
All speculation, of course, but I would be surprised ifDaredevildoesnt pursue this at some point.
Ive yet to see any Sister Maggie listed in the credits, though.
God, what are you, just eating Doritos all day?
I am, of course, joking.
That being said, it even looks like the basic black costume is going to evolve.
The above picture looks like just Matt in a hoodie and sweats.
But then…
…this one is more streamlined.
Either way, Im more on board with the minimalist all-black Daredevil costume than Ive ever been.
Check out the highlights…
Now, for a few supporting characters…
Meet the Kingpin.
They sure are being coy about showing us Vincent DOnofrio as Wilson Fisk, arent they?
Weve been told that this show is as much the story of Wilson Fisks origin as it is Daredevils.
Theyre making us wait, though.
This could be where his love of white begins…who knows?
When Matt finally gets his red suit, will Fisk don his white one?
This image also has a nice comic panel feel to it, without being too overt.
And heres another blurry picture of Kingpin, just for the hell of it.
She doesnt exactly look like shes here for a job interview at Nelson and Murdock, does she?
Instead, she looks like shes here because, well, she needs a lawyer.
Theyre clearly going to set up Karen Pages troubles with narcotics and other things for a later payoff.
Speaking of lawyers…
Meet Foggy Nelson!
Our first look at Franklin Foggy Nelson, Matts law partner and best pal, played by Elden Henson.
Is that Matts cane on the left?
And now…
Meet Night Nurse!
Rosario Dawson is Claire Temple.
He also teaches him how to fight.
Stick isnt a very nice guy.
But my next question is…
…are these individuals supposed to be Sticksothermaster warriors, the Chaste?
If so, thats a nice surprise.
It looks like a young boy, probably Matt, is huddled over a body in the alley.
Probably his Dad after he gets rubbed out by gangsters for refusing to throw a fight.
Just a hunch, though.
The Unanswered Questions
Pretty sure weve never seen this much blood in every Marvel Studios production combined.
But this also looks like it could be a flashback.
But who is this?
Is that Karen Page and Matt Murdock?
If so, this is probably less a flashback than a hallucination of some kind.
I gave this a careful look but got nowehere.
I only included this above shot because its another scene that looks kind of like a flashback to me.
Could these Netflix series fill in more blanks?
I suppose its possible, but I dont think its terribly likely.
But damn, it would be cool if they did that.
The Violence.
Behold…
A fine bit of stuntwork here…
A genuine defenestration here…
The outcome of said defenestration… Daredevildrops on April 10th.
As you might imagine, Im looking forward to it.
