Are you still reeling from the news that Netflix has cancelled DAREDEVIL? Lord knows I definitely am. For those of you who\u2019ve been under a rock for the past month, following the news of LUKE CAGE and IRON FIST being cancelled, it was announced last month that the streaming giant has dropped the axe on the MARVEL\/NETFLIX inaugural show.<\/p>\n

As to why the DAREDEVIL was cancelled? Well, reports seem to point to that the relationship between Marvel and Netflix has become strained. Which seems to track with the news of LUKE CAGE\u2019s cancellation<\/a><\/strong>, from a shorten season order after the season was plotted, to creative disputes and other issues.<\/p>\n

As for the creative disputes over DAREDEVIL? Well, haven\u2019t seen anything come up on my radar as to what they may have been. But what is known is that season 4 has already been planned out. So it definitely sucks we won\u2019t be seeing what might\u2019ve been.<\/p>\n

But for those of you hoping that the cancelled Marvel\/Netflix shows will head to Disney\u2019s forthcoming streaming service, Disney+, well, I have some salt to pour on this wound. Supposedly Disney+ wants nothing to do with the Netflix produced shows. CBR<\/a><\/strong> is reporting that Rolling Stone\u2019s TV critic, Alan Sepinwall, has stated:<\/p>\n

The execs have already said they don’t want these shows on the Disney service. And even if they did, the nature of the contracts would make it virtually impossible. They’re done.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Sepinwall goes on to say:<\/p>\n

I should clarify, the Marvel shows for Disney+ are being produced by Marvel movie execs, who do not like or get along with the Marvel TV execs who made Dardevil et al. Technically, they COULD make a\u00a0Luke Cage<\/em>\u00a0show a few years down the line. They just don\u2019t want to.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So it sounds like, with all the cancellation news, and Marvel responding that the characters will live on, it just might not be with the same cast, crews, and stories, only the characters. Maybe something similar to what happened with Sony Pictures and Marvel over SPIDER-MAN. Despite the franchise failing under Sony, Tobey Mcguire or Andrew Garfield wouldn\u2019t be a good fit in terms of casting in the MCU. So with the Marvel agreement, it allowed for casting, not only that is more appropriate for the character, but also allowed for casting for someone that would fit into the larger MCU landscape.<\/p>\n

So that\u2019s something we might see here. Don\u2019t get me wrong, I LOVE the casting for the Netflix\/Marvel shows, but there are definitely in their own little universe, with their own tone that differs from the MCU. So I\u2019d definitely bet that we\u2019ll be seeing a new take on the characters in some live-action format in the future.<\/p>\n

But what about the remaining 2 shows on Netflix, well, no word on JESSICA JONES and PUNISHER\u2026 but if I had to guess, just from what the impression of the business relationship seems to be, they\u2019re probably on the chopping block too. But I hope we get at least one more season of both those shows. Krysten Ritter is SO GREAT as Jessica Jones and we FINALLY have an awesome Punisher in Job Bernthal. So definitely hoping for at least another season.<\/p>\n

But I\u2019ll definitely keep you updated as this reaping continues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
