‘Daredevil: Born Again’ Releases Writers and Directors as Marvel Plans Overhaul of Series
variety.comJoe Otterson TV Reporter “Daredevil: Born Again” is undergoing a major creative overhaul, Variety has confirmed. The Disney+ series from Marvel Studios has recently parted ways with head writers Chris Ord and Matt Corman and is currently seeking new writers to revamp the show.
Ord and Corman will still be credited as executive producers. And with less than half of the series’ 18-episode order shot prior to the beginning of the SAG-AFTRA strike, Marvel has also released the directors for the remaining episodes of the season.
Some elements of the already shot material will be used going forward, but Marvel is looking to take the show in a new creative direction. “Daredevil” is still unable to return to full scale production, as the actors remain on strike, though they are currently in negotiations with the studios to return to work.
The Writers Guild of America recently reached their own new deal with the studios to end their strike, with 99% of the guild’s membership voting to approve the deal earlier this week.
