The Writer’s Guild of America strike continues and studios will be hit hard if the Screen Actor’s Guild strikes. Hollywood is hoping for an agreement, but many TV shows and films are experiencing delays. Some projects barely squeaked by, like James Gunn’s
Superman: Legacy
, but the newest reported projects that have been delayed are the Disney+ revival of the Marvel Studio’s show Daredevil: Born Again and Warner Bros’ HBO The Batman spin-off, Penguin.The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that both shows were shut down multiple times due to the strike, and it was decided just to put the productions on hold until the strike ends. Daredevil: Born Again
and Penguin‘s shutdown would join other productions like Aziz Ansari’s Good Fortune for Lionsgate. Marvel Cinematic Universe movies such as Thunderbolts and Blade would opt to postpone going forward as both felt their scripts were not quite ready.Daredevil: Born Again was an anticipated return of Charlie Cox as the man without fear after Netflix canceled the initial run, titled simply
Daredevil. Since concluding that series, Cox would make surprise cameos in other MCU projects such as Spider-Man: No Way Home and She-Hulk. Additionally, Vincent D’Onofrio, who portrayed the Kingpin, would show up in the Disney+ Marvel series Hawkeye. The revival was to be a 18-episode series, which would not only bring back Cox and D’Onofrio but also Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle/The Punisher. Michael Gandolfini, Margarita Levieva and Sandrine Holt will also star in the series from writers and executive producers Matt Corman and Chris Ord.Meanwhile, Penguin
comes from rival companies and networks, DC and Warner Bros. This show is a remake of the popular film The Bat starring Robert Pattinson. Penguin is to be an eight-episode series that would involve Oswald Cobblepot’s rise to power in the underground criminal world of Gotham City. Matt Reeves, the director of The Batman, will be an executive producer alongside Colin Ferrell, Dylan Clark (who wrote the scripts, and is also serving as the showrunner), Craig Zobel, who directs the first 3 episodes, and Bill Carraro. The cast includes Cristina Milioti and Rhenzy Feliz. Michael Kelly, Shohreh AGhdashloo, Deirdre OConnell and Michael Zegen are recurring. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HekbqZJ8An0
