Posted on Tuesday, August 5th, 2008 at 9:58 am by: Peter Sciretta Death Race and Crank star Jason Statham wants to be in a big screen reboot of the popular Marvel character Daredevil. But Statham doesn’t want to play the baddie Bullseye, he wants to take over as the blind man behind the red mask - Daredevil, who was played by Ben Affleck in Mark Steven Johnson’s 2003 film. Frank Miller, who is credited for adding new depths to the comic book series in the 1970’s, has also given his approval: “I think he should be Daredevil too,” Miller told the LATimes. So now that Marvel has their own production company, how about the Daredevil movie that should have happened? Hire Statham and a good director who will take the material seriously. My opinion: Jason Statham is my favorite actor in this generation. I seriously think it's gonna be a good one. He's still a bit of a nobody even though catching the eye of Mission: Impossible producer, Paula Wagner and Resident Evil director, Paul W.S. Anderson in Death Race, a big budget remake of Roger Corman and David Carradine's cult classic. So I think he's gonna be the new Stallone, Russell or Connery. So cherish his non A-List moment by putting him in this film.

Statham is THE MAN.
I do not know about him playing DareDevil, but still. The frickin' man.

I wasn't aware that Daredevil had a car? You noticed every Statham's movie involves cars?

Statham would be awesome as daredevil. Of course a wet mop can out act Affleck. Statham was great in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, and Snatch. I really hope Marvel redoes daredevil as it has done with the hulk. They really need to recast Elektra as well.

You guys are all kidding right?
Not only does he look NOTHING like Matthew Murdock, his accent comes through in almost everything he utters. He might be good for the martial arts sequences, but the rest... gah!! NO!!! |
