Episode 3 - "Rabbit in a Snow Storm"
Fansided adds that director Phil Abraham ("The Sopranos," "Breaking Bad, Mad Men") will direct the first two episodes, while Adam Kane ("The Mentalist," "Haven," "Heroes") will helm episode 3.
Aside from the episode list, several rumors are making rounds that Matt Murdock might get to wear his "classic red costume" in the series. The first Daredevil costume was already out and its based on the on the 1993 comic book storyline "The Man Witout Fear," sporting an all black attire with a blindfolded head.
Executive producer Stephen S. DeKnight has provided some insight regarding the costume in the "Daredevil" series.
"We're going for a very kind of gritty, 1970s New York feel for the show. We love the idea of beauty in the decay of the city, and Hell's Kitchen being a place that is both horrible and beautiful at the same time, DeKnight said."That's why Matt Murdock loves it so much and wants to protect it."
"Daredevil" series star Charlie Cox also shared his opinion about the costume during an interview with Cinemablend.
"It’s pretty tight, I’m not going to lie. They’ve done such a great job. I can’t wait for the fans to really see it. But put it this way, there is no world where you can change in a phone box. It takes four people and about 45 minutes,” Charlie Cox said to Cinemablend.
Cox further adds, "They’re very clever about it. You get three zippers. You zip them all up, but when you have to wee, you just have to zip one down – the wee zipper.”
So far, Marvel Studios has not provided further details on when will Matt Murdock take on his classic red costume; however, Moviepilot allegedly reports that the classic red costume of Murdock in the "Daredevil" series will be based on the 2004 storyline "Secret War" in the Marvel comics.
According to Moviepilot, the costume is a combination of red and black and will definitely have a classic look. It has a red streaking highlights down the legs that gives off a Tron-like feel, which may serve as a nice visual change to the gritty tone within the series.
Comic UI also shared a little desrscription about the costume and a possible spoiler in the "Daredevil" series.
"The scene in question starts with the Kingpin ordering his goons to shoot Daredevil, and at the last minute Daredevil grabs a pipe on the ground and throws it, knocking the gun out of his hand,” according to one source on set. “The suit Daredevil was wearing is black with red and looked like a latex scuba suit. He also confirmed it also having red lines down it as highlights as well.”
There are also reports that Carl Creel a.k.a. The Absorbing Man will make a cameo in "Daredevil" series based on photo in the show's Twitter Page.
