Jason Statham in Frank Miller’s ‘Daredevil’?

LA Times had a chance to sit down with Frank Miller and Jason Statham, who chatted about a potential “Daredevil” movie, which could star Statham as the title character.

When Miller worked for Marvel Comics, his work on “Daredevil” added new depth to the character, but Mark Steven Johnson’s 2003 adaptation (starring Ben Affleck) was not very well received by fans or critics. So when the topic of “Daredevil” came up, Miller was more than happy to discuss.

Statham said he is eager to work with Miller at some point and that he adores the Daredevil character. “Just give me the chance, I would love to be Daredevil,” he said. When the newspaper suggested that Statham would make a better Bullseye, he quickly bounced back with: “Forget Bullseye, I want to be Daredevil!”

Miller agreed with him: “I think he should be Daredevil too.”

I’m not to sure about him playing the next Daredevil…this guy is a bad-ass but he is too small and cannot pull off the devil look. How do you feel about Statham playing the Daredevil?
