No need to pad this story with half-arsed conjecture. Instead here’s five facts to tell all about the almost-greenlit Daredevil 2:

1.  Ben Affleck (DVDs) and Jennifer Garner (DVDs) both featured in the original Daredevil movie in 2003.

2.  They got married last month, to each other.

3.  They want to work together on a film project soon.

"Ben says it’s in the early stages, but he is hopeful," remarked Garner hopefully "It would be fun to work together, not to mention convenient."

4.  Garner recently stared in Daredevil spin-off Electra, which held its own at the box office, but bombed critically.

5.  Ben Affleck needs a hit. No, he NEEDS a hit.

Daredevil was never as bad as your Empire-coveting mates told you it was. Check out its newly released Director’s Cut on DVD to see the potential.

And have some faith.
