Ahead of the Marvel series release on Netflix later tonight, the series showrunner Stephen DeKnight and Jeph Loeb attended a press event for the show. During the press day the two revealed some details onthat shed some light on what we should expect to see from the show's opening title sequence.
"We had multiple companies come in and pitch, and they all had variations of the same idea, where you zoom in on an eye and you see a sonar map of the city," Showrunner Steven Deknight said before revealing that they decided to go with a different idea for the title sequence. "Elastic, came in and had multiple pitches, and one of them was to have this dripping, fluid-like blood dripping over everything. Jeph and I sat up, like an electric shock, when we saw that. You’re always very polite in the room, but when they left, we were like, 'We’ve gotta do that one!' Then, we showed it to Marvel and Netflix, and they loved it."
Marvel’s Head of Television Jeph Loeb then added that there were a "lot of conversations about title sequences and how best to deliver on them. One of the ones we all agreed had struck us, as far as imagination and delivering on what the show was about, was True Detective, and Elastic was the company that did the titles for that. They came in and showed us that and a couple of other things they had done, and we were impressed. But it was this singular image of this dark red liquid covering something, as if paint were covering something invisible and revealing it."
"Marvel's Daredevil" is a live action series that follows the journey of attorney Matt Murdock, who in a tragic accident was blinded as a boy but imbued with extraordinary senses.
