In preparation for the masked vigilante’s 2015 Netflix debut, two new images of Daredevil have been delivered by Santa to tide you over until the new year. Coming courtesy of Entertainment Weekly, the images see Charlie Cox’s Man Without Fear in and out of costume: first in his civilian guise as legal eagle Matt Murdock, then cleaning up the streets as his crime-fighting alter ego.
If you’re wondering why the latter outfit is a little more ‘Dread Pirate Roberts’ than Daredevil fans are used to, this is the prototype costume Murdock dons in his early days (and indeed the Frank Miller Man Without Fear run), before busting out the more iconic burgundy leather devil suit.
In addition to the stills, Marvel’s Jeph Loeb dropped a couple of further hints about the show. “There aren’t going to be people flying through the sky; there are no magic hammers,” he said. “We’ve always approached this as a crime drama first, superhero show second.” Excited yet? Excellent.
Marvel’s Daredevil will debut on Netflix in the new year.
