'Marvel's Daredevil' Spoilers: Will Charlie Cox, Vincent D'Onofrio Serve Matt Murdock's "Agenda" On Netflix? [WATCH]
Ahead of its April release date, Netflix has released two motion posters on Facebook for their upcoming superhero series, Marvel's Daredevil. In their origin story, will Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) and Wilson Fisk (Vincent D'Onofrio) serve each other's "secret agenda?"
As we previously mentioned, Matt Murdock (Cox) was a young boy when he was struck blind after a near fatal car accident. Though everyone thinks he lives in complete darkness, radioactive chemicals have given him back his sight. By day, Murdock pretends to be a blind lawyer attending courtroom battles. But when darkness falls, Daredevil serves out his own brand of justice protecting Hell's Kitchen against crime.
The official Facebook page released the first motion poster, which features the ensemble cast, with the caption, "There are no heroes. No villains. Just people with different agendas. #Daredevil"
In the second motion poster, we see Murdock (Cox) putting on his trademark red glasses. As soon as bows his head, that's when Murdock turns into the vigilante, showing off his black ninja suit.

In an interview with Comics Continuum, costume designer Stephanie Maslansky describes the look, "We wanted something that looked militaristic and functional, but also dramatic and sexy. It was really tricky to make it both be practical and look."
Showrunner Steven S. DeKnight adds, "Eventually it morphs into the classic suit, because he wouldn't be Daredevil without it. Getting there is part of the fun. ... The solution is very exciting and makes complete sense."

In an interview with Collider, the Full Metal Jacket actor reveals what interested him about the project, "Everybody's motivation comes from the core of who they are. There's not one false moment in the whole thing. They all have very deeply thought-out, emotional lives that drive these people. It's pretty cool. I'm very proud of it. It was unexpected, and I didn't know I was going to have the time I had on it, but I ended up having one of the best experiences I've had, so far."
