20th Century Fox along with Regency are according to The Hollywood Reporter has employed screenwriter/director of Fox's Fringe Brad Caleb Kane to write the new relaunch of 'DareDevil'.
David Slade will direct this, and Dylan Clark and Peter Chernin of Chernin Entertainment will produce it. There isn't much more info on this subject that has been officially printed but David Slade does keep promising on his Twitter account that he'll put up more info but none at the moment has come through...so you know now where to go if you are foaming at the mouth to hear more about DareDevil.
But Slade and 20th Century Fox also want Brad Caleb Kane to adapt Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli's 'Born Again' comic book run, i.e this is the most famous of all the stories in these comic book says Empire Magazine online. But I do have to admit that I as a comic book reader when I was younger I never came across this storyline. But apparently it is the most famouse of them all and in case you are like me and don't know the story here it is:
Matt Murdock (the blind lawyer) has been driven mad by how he's had to go after Kingpin. And in order to get his nemesis he has lost all his worldly possesions and as a result of this he starts to believe that his friends are all in on a conspiracy against him (this includes his friend and law office partner Foggy Nelson, to me that is a great name for a sidekick), therefore he hits rock bottom. However luckily for our hero a wrong step from Kingpin makes him fight his way back. This story also originally featured Captain America.
