And yes, with David Slade given the job, there’s “some kind of talk” about Robert Pattinson – who, with the “Twilight” series winding up, is going to be looking for a new well-paying gig – playing the part of Matt Murdock. That’s just ‘talk’ though
Now, let me say two things. First to the fellow online community. Since this is a sequel to the 2003 film, why do you keep calling it a reboot? That’s not what a reboot is. Second, Pattinson. It’s only a rumor. I’m glad folks are pointing this out. Surprisingly, Josh Hartlett’s name hasn’t shot up to the top of the rumor list as fast. While I’m not always eye to eye with most comics geeks, I would think Josh’s name in a rumor mill would be a bit more believable. It would lessen the sting at the very least. But the thing of it is, if this is a sequel, and the online community as well as some execs start thinking “young 20s” Matt Murdock I got a news flash for you.
This is a SEQUEL. It follows the 2003 film. That is the plan.. The sequel idea works well because it sets up the Born Again storyline nicely. It is not a reboot. It is a sequel. You cannot cast an actor like Pattinson. Don’t cast Kristin Stewart as Elektra either even if she looks like Jennifer Garner’s kid sister. Stop this crap. Just stop it.
Any actor could replace Affleck, but let’s not get carried away.
Am I wrong?
