Not too keen on him as Matt Murdock, looks too young

Kylo Ren

I loved him in Boardwalk Empire. Good stuff.

Vincent D’Onofrio cast as Wilson Fisk

That could be an inspired casting.

It's what pushes me from intrigued to excited about this. He is such a terrific actor; it is perfect casting IMO.

Rosario Dawson joins the cast.

She would be a cool Elektra if that is who she is cast as.

Bar Cox as the lead but maybe he will prove me wrong though

Agent Coulson

Vincent D'Onofrio Talks Playing 'Kingpin'.


On a potential crossover with the MCU:

"Well, I think they have some kind of plan. I’m not really allowed to discuss what the plan is, but they have a plan. I think the beginning of the plan is series stuff with Netflix, and then they have a bigger plan to branch out, but I wouldn’t be able to tell you specifically what that is."

Agent Coulson

“Will not be afraid to go darker” than Marvel’s films.

One obvious question is whether or not the Netflix characters will end up in big-screen stories. While DC seems determined to keep the TV and film universes separate, Marvel has already cross-pollinated the film and TV worlds via Agents of SHIELD, and will continue to do so in the upcoming Agent Carter series.
Sarandos said,
[A crossover] has definitely been talked about. ‘Daredevil’ is already shooting, since that’s out first. Eventually the series will run very close together. You can then have a separate season where the characters will cross over.
I asked Kevin Feige the crossover question six weeks ago, and he demurred:
We haven’t talked about that yet, really, because it’s just early days for that. Daredevil is in production right now. But it is the same universe, so there’s always potential for that.

^ Cox looks like Billy Bob Thornton is his lawyer suit and Zorro is his Daredevil suit I assume the Daredevil suit will change i.e. to red as the show progresses

Flippin' American date formats; I had to google to figure out if it was coming out in April or October

Daredevil's set in New York yeah? Is it known if the show will make any direct references to events that happened in The Avengers? Agents of SHIELD never really addressed the small matter of an alien invasion in the heart of NY, it'd be a little weird if Daredevil also skirted the issue...

I've only seen each episode once, but I could have sworn that Coulson never shut up about that in the first few episodes? Kept mentioning it, and how he died, and how he was pals with the Avengers?...

Yep they also had a number of episodes which dealt with artifacts left over from the battle - Chitauri Helmet

Sorry, I didn't expand enough, I was talking from the point of view of a society, not just as a plot convenience: yeah there was a running thing of Coulson name-dropping the battle ad nauseum but it seems passing strange the world seemed to just carry on as if it was no big thing.

It'd seem like a missed opportunity if a Marvel show set on the streets of New York didn't look at how people's lives might change or warp after the alien invasion. Everyone's otherwise so glib about it. It's often remarked how transformative the discovery of alien life would be on humanity - to have it invade the 5 Boroughs without it changing the world seems ... weird.

In our world it would be a big thing. In a world with ironman, the norse god of thunder and a giant green Man, not so much.

I don't agree, but it's speculation for now: I just hope Daredevil has the self-awareness to run with the notion that if aliens tried to demolish your city, or a giant space slug died ontop of your apartment building, it's going to change ordinary Joe Brooklyn's world. It's easy to dismiss an eccentric billionaire and his high-tech toys; aliens on the streets wrecking the place is going to leave scars - potentially interesting-for-a-plot scars. In a world of superheroes, what's it like being an ordinary citizen?

Ah right, I understand where you're coming from now, and I agree.

I do think that it will be touched upon in Daredevil and the other netflix shows though. They seem more "attached" to the streets so we should be seeing the effects of the aftermath (well, I hope we see it anyway)

Nervous Wreck

Don't forget, these shows are set 2+ years after Avengers. By now, a lot of the fallout from the Battle of New York will be receding into the background anyway.

Harvey Low Fat Milk

Teaser for the teaser released, because that's a thing now apparently.
