Boardwalk Empire's Charlie Cox Cast as Daredevil for Marvel / Netflix Series - IGN
British actor Charlie Cox -- whose credits include Stardust and Boardwalk Empire -- has landed the title role in Marvel's Daredevil Netflix series. Latino Review first reported they were hearing rumblings of Cox's casting, which were then confirmed by Variety.
Over the weekend, news broke that Daredevil's original showrunner, Drew Goddard, had stepped down from that role, though he is still writing the first two episodes and will serve as an executive producer/consultant. Steven S. DeKnight, Goddard's fellow Buffy and Angel alum -- who was the man behind Starz' Spartacus -- has taken over as showrunner.
Daredevil is the first of Netflix's five upcoming Marvel series, including Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Luke Cage and finally The Defenders, which will unite all of the characters.
