    Daredevil

    Character » Daredevil appears in 4766 issues.

    As a child, Matt Murdock was blinded by radioactive waste while trying to save an elderly stranger about to get hit by a truck carrying the dangerous material. In turn, his other senses were heightened to superhuman sharpness and he gained a form of "radar sense". By day, he is a successful trial lawyer; but by night, he guards Hell's Kitchen as Daredevil: the Man Without Fear.

    Would Elijah Wood make a good Daredevil?

    I don;t know about you, but I think he would be an excellent Daredevil, not that I want to see DD remade (Excellent movie. You can;t remake that shit)

    No. I'd like to see a man (not a boy) play the role of Daredevil. I will give Wood a little credit for making himself slighly tougher seeming in Green Street Hooligans. 
     
    I liked the original movie also. I do think it could be done much better though and with as awesome as DD is he deserves a really great movie.

    I love me some LOTR. But if Daredevil was played by Frodo the collective fanboys and girls worldwide would simultaneously combust.

    Dont believe Wood would be taht good a choice since while he can act never seen him do anything remotely simular to playing  Daredevil. That and he would have to put on a bit of weight to

    I'd say his role in Sin City was a better example but even then not a very good one.

    Maybe...   He looks like he could pull off the Matt Murdock part of the character, but he'd really have to put on the muscle and get more athletic to even be feasible as Daredevil.
     
    In my opinion, Matt Damon would be the best balance of Daredevil & Matt Murdock.

    @hydrabob:
    Well, Adrien Brody wasn't exactly Matt Damon when he played Royce in Predators, but they managed to make him look athletic enough. If they can do that for Brody, I'm sure they can do that for Wood.

    He is too short for one, DD should be played by someone at least 5'10", this midgets only 5'6", that's a inch shorter than Tom Cruise. DD is 6'
