Ever since Netflix announced that it has cancelled its superhero show, Daredevil, fans have started petitions to the makers. The show was cancelled in November 2018 after its third season. There have been various reports that suggest whether the show will return on another OTT platform. There has been no confirmation on the same yet.
What is the "Save Daredevil" campaign?
With the recent developments regarding Netflix’s Daredevil, a group of fans have come together to urge the makers to continue the show. The campaign is put forth by a large number of fans of the show from across the globe. The group was initially started as Renew Daredevil.
In less than a week, the group became a global voice for Daredevil fans across the world. The group was recognised by leading actors, news organisations and celebrities. The campaign also has a dedicated website and social media pages for it as well.
The major aim of the group is to bring back the show either on Netflix or on any other online streaming platform. The group also wants the makers of Daredevil to keep the original cast and crew of the show and continue telling their story to the audience. The Save Daredevil group also functions as a platform that provides authentic and verified information about the popular show. It aims to clear any rumours regarding the show.
As a part of the campaign, the group has also managed to put up a billboard in Times Square, New York. This effort made sure that the group’s voices were heard. The group also put up a post regarding the same on their social media. Since it is an expensive affair to have a billboard in Times Square, the effort was due to the “generosity of a wonderful fan,” as mention on their official Twitter account.
The fate of the show is still unclear. Fans have been hanging their hopes on Hulu, which is a streaming platform by Disney. Here is the official website of the campaign: https://www.savedaredevil.com/
The Save Daredevil campaign is also encouraging fans to send emails and letters to Marvel urging the producers to continue the show. Many celebrities including the main actors of the show have come out in support of it. It is yet to be seen if these efforts will bear any fruit or it will all go down the drain.
