Will We See A New Daredevil Moive With Typhoid Mary?

We can only hope that things turn out better if this is true.

Daredevil, to me, is one of those characters that can be really cool or pretty boring.  A lot obviously depends on the writer.  Normally I do like him.  He can be pretty bad ass.  Marvel has mentioned, unofficially, that they would like to reboot Daredevil.  I say, why not?  The Ben Affleck movie was out in 2003.  Rebooting Hulk after the 2003 movie seemed to work last year.  Ben Affleck has stated that he's been "cured" of the desire to play a superhero again.  Now could be the time to start things over.  We don't need another origin.  Just let him go into action, just like Incredible Hulk did.  An origin during the opening credits is fine.

What's the reason for the Daredevil talk today?  The LA comic store, Golden Apple, has some ideas in mind.  It seems Katee Sackhoff, Starbuck from the recent Battlestar Galactica, was in the stores grabbing all the Typhoid Mary comics she could find. 

Now just because an actor or actress buys some comics doesn't automatically mean they're trying out for a role.  Golden Apple did say infer that she has "hopes to get a part for a Marvel movie."  It wasn't a direct quote and it's not clear if that was her reason or their speculation.  A comment on the page also pointed out that she has been involved with Deadpool in the past and we do know that he has a movie planned.

What are your thoughts?  Are you a Typhoid Mary fan?  Would you like to see her appear in a new Daredevil movie?  Do you think that Sackhoff is planning on trying out for the role?
