Daredevil stuntman Chris Brewster details the Netflix show's best hallway fight scene that was planned and choreographed but never filmed. First hitting Netflix in 2015, Daredevil introduces audiences to Charlie Cox's take on the iconic blind superhero. The show serves as an origin story for the character as he hones his abilities while also facing off against his arch-nemesis from Marvel Comics, Wilson Fisk (Vincent D'Onofrio), aka Kingpin. Daredevil ultimately ran for 3 popular seasons before Netflix canceled it, along with all the other in-universe shows, including Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, The Punisher, and The Defenders.
Daredevil earned strong reviews from audiences and critics alike, with particular praise levied at its grittiness and impressive fight choreography. Instead of relying on CGI, the show used stunt performers to film a number of intricate fight sequences, with each season of the show featuring one standout hallway fight. These hallway fights were typically filmed as "oners," meaning they appear to be captured in one continuous take in order to add to the intensity and highlight the exhaustion Daredevil feels as he takes out waves of enemies. The prison sequence in Daredevil season 3, for example, was the show's longest oner yet, featuring Cox's Matt Murdoch attempting to survive a brutal prison riot.
In a recent interview with Average Being, stunt double Chris Brewster reveals that he and his stunt team had planned and choreographed Daredevil's most epic hallway fight sequence yet, but it never got filmed because the show was canceled. Although he doesn't go into detail regarding the context of the scene, he reveals that he's still holding onto hope that one day the fight will come to fruition. Check out Brewster's full comment below:
"Before they canceled Daredevil, the stunt team and I created the most epic single-shot hallway fight in history. We were ready to absolutely blow the first three “oners” away with this one. It was going to be an absolutely epic work of art. We designed the most creative Texas switches, the most dynamic character-driven choreography, and the most innovative camera work any of us have ever imagined. I still have the blueprints, notes, and references. Hopefully, we get the chance to put it on screen someday."
Why Daredevil's Fight Scenes Remain So Popular
Although Daredevil's recent appearance in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law proves that Cox's take on the character can still very much work in a more lighthearted setting, Netflix's Daredevil earned fans for being dark, brooding, and having exceptional fight scenes. In contrast to other action shows on television, Daredevil featured fight scenes that were intricately choreographed and executed, not hiding action with quick cuts and a shaky camera, but letting the choreography play out in plain view. TV budgets and schedules can sometimes result in poorly-crafted action scenes, but Daredevil consistently made these scenes a central focus, relying on a top-quality stunt team to deliver thrilling and complex sequences.
Cox's Daredevil is set to return once more in Daredevil: Born Again, but it's unclear how this new Disney+ show will compare to Netflix's version. Cox has already started training with an MMA fighter for Daredevil: Born Again, suggesting that the upcoming reboot could retain a similar emphasis on practical, gritty fight choreography, but the series is very unlikely to feature a TV-MA rating like its predecessor. While Daredevil season 4 will never happen at Netflix at this point, hopefully, Brewster gets a chance to one day bring his epic hallway fight scene to life.
