| Mark Steven Johnson On 'Daredevil 2'! |

At the Wizard World Convention Last Week, Ghost Rider helmer Mark Steven Johnson said hed be keen to not only do a sequel to the Nicolas Cage starrer, but also his earlier superhero effort, Daredevil.
According to Aint it Cool, Johnson said hed like to do a sequel that uses the Born Again storyline as its template.
"Daredevil: Born Again" is a story arc in Marvel Comics' series. The story details Daredevil's fall to insanity and destitution at the hands of The Kingpin, as well as his subsequent struggle to build a new life for himself. It is considered by many fans to be the definitive Frank Miller written Daredevil story.
Unfortunately, MSJ thinks hed have a bit of a fight on his hands because FOX arent keen on to put the guy in crimson back on the screen; not after the failure of Elektra anyway. The studio has shelved any future Daredevil instalment, he said.
If FOX did decide to do a sequel to Daredevil, it sounds like theyd have to recast. Ben Affleck said recently that hed never wear tights again (just on a film set, I assume?). By playing a superhero in Daredevil, I have inoculated myself from ever playing another superhero," Affleck told the press at the London premiere of Hollywoodland. "Wearing a costume was a source of humiliation for me and something I wouldn't want to do again soon."
Though rumours suggested Jason Behr (The Grudge, Skinwalkers) was in talks at one stage to replace Affleck for a sequel, reps for the actor say, Thats not true. Perceptibly a nice fan movement to get Behr the role, me thinks.
Michael Clarke Duncan, on the other hand, would be keen to return for a sequel. The actor who played the villain Kingpin in the first film said hes got some great ideas for a follow-up. "I had thought what would be kind of cool that we see him in jail, we see him in prison, we see him...you start from the end of 'Daredevil', before the sirens and Daredevil is gone and you see the Kingpin in shackles you see him going to prison you see him getting locked up and you see his boys sitting there saying 'Well what are you going to do now?' And he just starts to think 'I need to train, I need to get better, I need to get quicker'."
