Bradley Cooper recently stated that he would be hesitant to try out for another superhero, but Showbiz Spy is reporting that he is the front runner for the role of Matt Murdock/Daredevil.



Reports Showbiz Spy:

Bradley Coooper is being lined up for a Daredevil role.
The Hollywood hunk is the hot favorite to play blind Marvel comics crimefighter Daredevil in a movie franchise reboot.


UPDATE:

"This will be very different to Ben Affleck and his go at Daredevil on film," says a movie insider. Daredevil is an exciting character and a unique challenge for an actor. Bradley is top of the list of actors to take the lead role and it sounds like he’s interested.

Not a bad choice, but I see Cooper as Hal Jordan instead...he was my second choice (next to Ryan Reynolds of course).

ShowbizSpy are unreliable in my experience, but I could see this happenning. The guy is a great actor, but I do find it hard to imagine him as DD! Awesome find though Waylon!

atleast he's better then Patterson then again haven't seen that guy act in anything besides those shitty twicrap movies. But Coopers ok choice wouldn't be against, would be a stretch but who knows he could pull it off, but I'd rather see MCH but doubt thats going to happen.

HONESTLY GET SOMEONE WHO CAN FIGHT, THEY HAVE TO BE ABLE TO FIGHT..AFLECK LOOKED THE PART BUT IT LOOKED SO OBVIOUS THAT HE WAS DOING FIGHT CHOREO WHEN THE FIGHT SCENES CAME ON IN THE MOVIE, WAY TOO STIFF. SURE THE PICKS FOR ACTORS ARE COOL PICKS, BUT CAN THEY FIGHT? CAT LIKE REFLEXES IS WHAT THE ROLE DEMANDS, CAN THEY FIGHT?

Michael C. Hall is the man for the job. He plays a great brooder, someone who lives a lot in his own head. I would love to see Daredevil portrayed dark and gritty using Parkour stylings since he's on rooftops and alleys so much to get around and a good mix of Jeet Kun Do, Muay Thai and Kali (Philipino stick fighting) along with some fancy ninja sh!t but NO playground scene!!!!

Cooper is an uninspired choice and a mediocre actor at best.

And WaylonJones, it's "hesitant" not "hesitate." C'mon. ;)

Unfortunately Guy Pierce said he wasn't into CBM's. I think he would awesome in any role he got.

Can't quite see Cooper as the passionate lawyer sticking up for the 'little guy'.
