| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00  | Affleck Homes in on 'Daredevil' By Tim Swanson HOLLYWOOD (Variety) - Ben Affleck soon will sport red spandex in Fox's feature version of Marvel Comics' superhero saga ``Daredevil.'' While the final touches still are being put on the deal, the ``Pearl Harbor'' pilot is expected to fetch a low eight-figure salary for his performance. The $50 million picture is tentatively scheduled to shoot next year in Vancouver. Mark Steven Johnson (''Simon Birch'') will direct. Affleck would play blind lawyer and martial artist Matt Murdock, who becomes so disillusioned with the legal system that he becomes the costumed crime-fighting vigilante known as Daredevil. After an accident with a radioactive isotope, he develops the radarlike sight that helps him bring villains to justice. Also making the leap from comicbook to film will be Daredevil's enemies -- corpulent Mob boss Kingpin; master marksman Bullseye; and Daredevil's ex-girlfriend-turned assassin-for-hire, Elektra. Vin Diesel had been circling the ``Daredevil'' project, but he has signed on to ``The Chronicles of Riddick,'' a sequel to the Universal sci-fi pic ``Pitch Black.'' Affleck recently shot ``Surviving Christmas'' for Columbia and ``The Sum of All Fears'' for Paramount. Once again, Affleck is casted in yet ANOTHER movie even though there are more people right for the part (a name I heard thrown around that would be great- Guy Pearce). So i figured with so many more comic flicks on tap including but not limited to Ghost Rider (Nick Cage as Johnny Blaze), Fantastic Four (no casting yet), Incredible Hulk (no cast yet but Ang Lee and Rick Baker are attached), a new Batman and a new Superman movie- whom would cast as the villains/heroes.

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | A-Team movie also in pre-production. As it Hogan's Heroes so if you want to include those in the 'perfect cast' thread also, go ahead. "I didn't realize how tragic it [the WTC attack] was until the celebrities told me"- Ron Bennington | ||||
