David Slade, director of Twilight Eclipse, spoke recently about potentially taking on the Daredevil reboot. Here is what he said on his Twitter account:
“Without breaking confidentiality, yes Daredevil, we have a great outline for a very strong character-driven take on Mr. Matt Murdock,”
“It will bare [sic] no relation to the previous Daredevil movie in any way. We are at early planning stages and have not yet discussed any cast.”
There are also rumors that Slade might replace Darren Aronofsky on The Wolverine, but Slade brushed them off. “There have been no discussions about this project to date,” he stated. “Interesting to see what will happen with that as the again excellent script by Chris McQuarrie was set largely in Japan.”
Slade is currently rumored to be in pre-production on The Last Voyage Of Demeter with Ben Kingsley and Noomi Rapace (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo), which is the story of the ill-fated crew aboard a merchant ship which carried Dracula’s coffin from Transylvania to England only to arrive at port with no survivors aboard.
