Daredevil FAN CAST

Daredevil FAN CAST

This is my Daredevil fan cast if the rights ever reverted to Marvel Studios.

I picked actors who I think are under-rated in supporting roles rather than filling them with big names.


Daredevil / Matt Murdock - Garrett Hedlund

From what I've seen, Hedlund's a decent enough actor with promising career in film. He's starred in Steven Spielberg's Tron sequel and will be starring in the upcoming white-washing of Akira.

Media I've Seen Him In:
Troy (2004)
Friday Night Lights (2004)


Karen Page - Abbie Cornish

The character of Karen Page would be very different from the roles Cornish normally plays (tough girl roles). She would have to play young, naive and hopeless romantic.

Media I've Seen Her In:
Stop-Loss (2008)
Sucker Punch (2011)
Limitless (2011)


Franklin "Foggy" Nelson - Sean Astin

I would like to see Astin in more big films. He just needs to stop looking so shlubby most of the time and I think he would. I think he would be an improvement from Jon Favreau's Foggy Nelson in the original Daredevil.

Media I've Seen Him In:
The Goonies (1985)
Encino Man (1992)
Lord of the Rings (2001-2003)
Click (2006)
My Name Is Earl (2007)


Bullseye - Andrew Howard

Howard has a menacing presence on screen that I think would be perfect for Bullseye.

Media I've Seen Him In:
Band of Brothers (2001)
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
I Spit On Your Grave (2010)
Limitless (2011)


Typhoid Mary - Delphine Chanéac

I don't care what she looked like in Splice, Chanéac was the hottest mutant thing I've ever seen. I've never wanted to have inter-species relations since... would the chick with three boobs from Total Recall count as another species?

Media I've Seen Her In:
The Pink Panther (2006)
Splice (2009)


Kingpin / Wilson Fisk - Brian Anthony Wilson

Another actor from Limitless, I know. It just turned out that way... I didn't even really like the movie. Anyways, Wilson has the look, the size and the voice for a very convincing Kingpin!

Media I've Seen Him In:
Snake Eyes (1998)
Rounders (1998)
The Sopranos (2001)
Bad Boys II (2003)
Explicit Ills (2008)
Limitless (2011)


Ben Urich - Ben Mendelson

Mendelson gave me chills in Animal Kingdom. I think he resembles and would do great as the New York investigative reporter, Ben Ulrich.

Media I've Seen Him In:
Quigley Down Under (1990)
Vertical Limit (2000)
Animal Kingdom (2010)


Father Everett - Steven Weber

I loved Wings and pretty sure am the only one of my friends who watched that show! I follow the man on Twitter and am glad to see him voicing Norman Osborn in the upcoming Ultimate Spider-Man series.

Media I've Seen Him In:
Hamburger Hill (1987)
Wings (1990-1997)
Single White Female (1992)
Duckman: Private Dick/Family Man (1995-1997)

I have never really liked Garrett....I don't know why, he just seems douchey.

Abbie is perfect for the role! Nice pick!

When I got to your Typhoid Mary pick my jaw dropped! She is perfect for that role! It is not even funny...
She could pull it off!

Overall, really nice job!

Delphine Chanéac is a great pick, everyone else is ok I guess. I would have went with the actor who plays Dexter for DareDevil, lol.

Ah, nice cast. Hedlund would still be too young for Daredevil though, and I don't feel your Kingpin. But the rest are pretty good. :)

I like most of these but I would cast Vincent Cassel as Bullseye. I don't like your Kingpin pick, I would pick John Goodman. the rest are good

Hahaha, @darknightmare I'm going to assume you were kidding with that casting suggestion for Kingpin!

I know this will sound crazy...but for kingpin, how about The Big Show Paul White?! Think about it, by the time Hollywood decides to reboot DD, Big Show could be tweaking his acting skills and hopefully being involved in more serious movies...haa? WWE is all about acting right? He's got the perfect size for a kingpin character!
