For a while now they have had <strong>Hard Candy<\/strong> director David Slade attached to direct, and Brad Caleb Kane has been working on the screenplay as well. However, the studio must think he needs some help as they have hired David James Kelly to work on it.<\/p>\n<p>Kelly\u2019s hiring comes to us from Deadline who also reports that the film is still set to be based on the 1986 <em>Daredevil<\/em> comic storyline &#8220;Born Again&#8221; created by writer Frank Miller and artist David Mazzucchelli. The story features Daredevil\u2019s former girlfriend Karen Page, now a hopeless drug addict, giving up the superhero\u2019s secret identity of blind lawyer Matt Murdoch to his arch enemy the Kingpin for a quick fix of heroin. The Kingpin uses the information to systematically tear apart Murdock&#8217;s life. It should be interesting to see how the film deals with the appearance late in the story of several characters whose rights are held by a certain other studio. (I&#8217;m being purposely vague here in order to avoid spoilers for those who may wish to read the comics run.)<\/p>\n<p>Via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.deadline.com\/2012\/04\/david-james-kelly-rewriting-daredevil-reboot-for-david-slade\/\" target=\"_blank\">Deadline<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">Fox keeps working at getting a new Daredevil film going.<\/div>\n<p> <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2012\/04\/30\/daredevil-reboot-gets-new-writer\/\" title=\"DAREDEVIL Reboot Gets New Writer\">[click for more]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20065,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[84],"tags":[3800,2366,5160,3573],"series":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-20064","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-brad-caleb-kane","9":"tag-daredevil","10":"tag-david-james-kelly","11":"tag-david-slade"},"aioseo_notices":[],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[2],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20064","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20064"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20064\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20065"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20064"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20064"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20064"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=20064"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
