'Daredevil' Reboot Getting A Rewrite

Right before I started writing this article I realized something: It has been nearly 10 years since Ben Affleck suited up for the original Daredevil back in 2003. Wow how time flies.
Anyway, Deadline is reporting that David James Kelly (not too familiar with his work) has been hired to rewrite Twentieth Century Fox's Daredevil reboot for director David Slade (30 Days of Night, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse).
Slade has been attached to the project since last year which will adapt Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli's Born Again storyline, which ran in the comics in the mid-1980s. The Born Again story involves Wilson Fisk (the Kingpin) turning Matt Murdock's life upside down - attacking his friends and family - after learning his true identity of Daredevil.
No release date or shooting schedule is set yet but expect the cameras to start rolling sometime next year.
