The following Twitter exchange, first noticed by Empire, has given way to a bit of the usual internet speculation..
As we know, David Slade has been charged by Fox to bring us a
Daredevil reboot, said to be based on Frank Miller's "Born Again" comic storyline. But things have not been running too smoothly, with the director taking other projects on board, and many wondering if the movie would even see the light of day. Has this given us an inkling that Slade would like his
30 Days Of Night star to suit up as "The Man Without Fear"? Possibly, but of course he may also have been referring to the first part of the Tweet - meaning he also hopes to be able to get working on the movie soon. Or, he was referring to Hartnett but only that he would like to see him finally get a role in a Marvel movie (he was beaten to the role of Loki in
Thor by Tom Hiddleston). One way or the other, Slade has since deleted the Tweet so take from that what you will.
What do you think? And could you see Hartnett in the role if this did come to pass?
