Alright this is my first article so don't judge me too bad.

Its been announced that the new Daredevil film will be directed by David Slade and not be a reboot but more of a "continuation" of the first film. Ive heard many people being suggested to play the part but what do you think?


First is Jason Statham(The Transporter, The Expendables)
He was quoted in saying
“Could a British actor wear the red horns of the Man Without Fear?… Absolutely, just give me the chance, I would love to be Daredevil.”

Others Include:

Michael C. Hall(Dexter, Gamer)

Patrick Wilson(Watchmen as Nite Owl, Lakeview Terrace)

Wentworth Miller(Prison Break, Resident Evil:Afterlife)

Jamie Bamber(Battlestar Galactica, Law & Order UK)

Jensen Ackles(Supernatural, Batman: Under The Red Hood)

His name popped up around here when some people thought he should play Superman and was apparently on the "short list" of actors to play Captain America.

So there's my article, what do you think.

Oh and thanks to TheGoddamnBatman, ParkerReilly, and WaylonJones for helping look a little bit less than an idiot.

Out of your list I'd choose MCH, but I'd also like to see Chris Pine in the role.

I Jason S. as an actor but I see him more as Bullseye than DD. I have to agree with the others, I like Chris P. as DD more than the other options.

None from your list.

Chris Pine would be OK.

I think MISHA COLLINS would be better
from Supernatural rather than JENSEN.

Jamie Bamber's 5 ft 9 he's too small, it should be some one closer to 6 ft, Statham is a BIG no as Daredevil he could be a good bullseye though. MCH, Chris Pine, Misha Collins, are good choices wouldn't really have problem with any of them getting the role.

Chris Pine looks good, but I see him more as Flash.
Jason Statham might do a good job.
MCH is probably the fan favorite pick for the role.

Bradley Cooper!? Why has this dude not been mentioned. Granted he went for GL but he could easily pull of DD.

The key thing for this film, regardless of cast, is a good script and direction. my only advice to the director; keep it real, gritty and intelligent. please!!!

Chris Pine is a good choice too, Statham couldn't do it as he cannot achieve a convincing american accent, Bullseye though...
