Netflix’s Daredevil launched the start of a new venture for Marvel Entertainment. Having already built a billion-dollar empire with its ultra-successful MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) that consists of superhero films Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and The Avengers (and many more!), the company turned its attention to the small screen. The arrival of Daredevil, previously a failure to launch franchise property with 20th Century Fox, and its success after its debut in 2015 has seen the streaming company air an even better second season, plus series programs about heroine Jessica Jones and heroes Luke Cage and Iron Fist.
For the longest time I wondered if Daredevil‘s first season would ever get a Blu-ray release. Well wonder no longer. Marvel Entertainment and Walt Disney Studios have announced that the “Man Without Fear” will make its arrival to the high-def format on November 8th. The released fact sheet has no indication if special features will be included but super fans are likely to pick up the first season on Blu-ray regardless.
Synopsis: “Marvel’s Daredevil” follows Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox), attorney by day and vigilante by night. Blinded in an accident as a child, Murdock uses his heightened senses as Daredevil, fighting crime on the streets of New York after the sun goes down. His efforts are not welcomed by powerful businessman Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) and others whose interests collide with those of Daredevil. Though Murdock’s day job portrays a man who believes in the criminal justice system, his alter ego suggests otherwise, as he takes the law into his own hands to protect his Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood and the surrounding communities.
