"Cabin in the Woods" Director to Write Netflix' "Daredevil"

Last week Wireless man Ben Mapp informed you, very kindly and with no ulterior motives, that entertainment giant Netflix had reached an agreement with Marvel and Disney to produce four original and exclusive series based on New York based characters.

Luke Cage, Ironfist, Jessica Jones and now, thanks to having re-secured the rights back from Fox, Daredevil! Forget the terrible Mark Steven Johnson Daredevil movie with Ben Affleck in it. Ben Affleck's an Oscar winning Batman now and Mark Steven Johnson lives in a fridge box under a motorway probably. Cast it as far from your mind as it will go, because today Netflix has announced that the first name in negotiations to write Daredevil is none other than Cabin in the Woods director Drew Goddard.

I've already come at you with the knowledge that Netflix and Marvel's miniseries based on the Man Without Fear Daredevil will be written by Drew Goddard (Lost, Buffy, Cabin in the Woods) but now Wireless is here to let you know that one of the other series also has a writer attached.

Netflix have partnered with Marvel & Disney to bring 4 exclusive superhero tales to your TV. The heroes involved are the aforementioned Daredevil along with Luke Cage, Iron Fist and Jessica Jones.
