The official Daredevil Twitter account released teaser images for Season 2 which suggests both Gladiator and possibly an updated and/or different Daredevil costume, as well as Elektra.

The image includes a saw blade with the initials of Melvin Potter, who appeared in Season 1. Potter is also known as the Gladiator and is a friend/foe to Daredevil having created his costume.

We also see sketmatics for an altered Daredevil costume, which could either be an update for the cowl or maybe an earlier version/design.

The second image features the weapon of Elektra, who will be played by Elodie Yung.

Marvel has found its Elektra for Daredevil Season 2.

Marvel.com announced Elodie Yung (G.I. Joe: Retaliation, District 13: Ultimatum) has joined the cast, which also includes Jon Berthal as The Punisher.

Yung will play Elektra, a mysterious woman from Matt Murdock’s past whose dangerous and exotic ways may be more than he can handle. The first season of “Marvel’s Daredevil” made reference to Elektra, but now Yung will portray one of Daredevil’s fan-favorite characters.

“After a worldwide search,  we found in Elodie the perfect actress to embody both Elektra’s impressive and deadly physicality, as well as her psychological complexity,” said Executive Producer and Head of Marvel Television, Jeph Loeb. “Paired with Charlie as Matt Murdock, the two will bring one of the most beloved and tumultuous comic book relationships to life with all the accompanying sparks and spectacular action sequences the show is known for.”

Daredevil Season 2 is due out in 2016 on Netlix.

It’s looking likely audition takes for the second season of Daredevil confirm Elektra as part of the cast.

While Elektra was hinted at in conversation between Foggy and Matt Murdock, it now appears as if the character will be featured in Season 2.

Electra audition tapes were uploaded and since taken down from Vimeo featuring Shiva Kalaiselvan and Louisa Mignone.

Mignone is featured in the recently released indie sci-fi movie, Infini, which also stars Luke Hemsworth, older brother to Chris and Liam Hemsworth. 

While the Elektra audition takes have been taken down, text from the auditions has hit the net revealing two scenes: one with Electra and a thug, and the other in what seems to be a flashback scene.

Shiva Kalaiselvan’s video states it’s for “Project: Daredevil” for a character named “Elise.”

Season 2 of Daredevil will be available next year on Netflix.

THUG SCENE

Elektra: Easy. No moving. No talking. Right now we play a game called, “This is not a conversation.” Sit on the bed.

Thug: Please, my pills, can I get them?

Elektra: The .38’s gone. So is the knife you stashed under the pillow. Anything else I should know about?

Thug: I’m getting on a plane just like you said. Tickets on the counter.

Elektra: I saw, window seat and everything.

Thug: I told you before, you and your partner, it was a long time ago but…

Elektra: (makes a threatening move with weapon)

Thug: I’m sorry. I’m doing everything you told me to do. I’m leaving behind my whole operation.

Elektra: And when you get to wherever you’re going on, I assume you set up shop doing the same sh*t you did here.

Thug: No.

Elektra: Hurting innocent people all because you’re too lazy to get rich the hard way.

Thug: What the hell do you want from me?

Elektra: My partner was a good kid and became a hell of a grown up. But he had goodness in him, once upon a time. The way he tells it, he comes home one night and heard a blow dryer in the bathroom. Dinner’s on the table. He waits a second, but he’s starving – he’s eats alone. Assumes she’ll be out any minute – she’ll be mad, but she’ll understand. Always does. He’s a good son. He goes to find her, blow dryer still on and there she is – brains on the god damn mirror!   

Thug: Your partner, that woman was his mother? And he doesn’t even know you’re here, does he?

Elektra: Sometimes it is better off not knowing.

Thug: I’m old man, I don’t have much time. I’ll give you everything.

Elektra: There is no version of this where you walk out that door.

Thug: Please, lady.

Elektra: Call me that again and I’ll cut your tongue out.

Thug: You promised you wouldn’t kill me.

Elektra: He said he wouldn’t kill you, but me, I never had goodness in me. (slow stabbing motion)

 

 

POSSIBLE FLASHBACK SCENE:

Elektra: Nice shoes, wingtips, good call. Tie them yourself?

Matt Murdock: How did you know?

Elektra: You don’t look like a tough read.

Matt Murdock: You never know I could surprise you.

Elektra: Doubt it.

Matt Murdock: Give it a try.

Elektra: Okay, you drink Macallan because you’re afraid beer would give you a frat boy vibe. You’ve never been inside a fraternity house. You weren’t even a boy scout. There is no club you would join because it would choke the air from your lungs. You’d suffocate. Shall I go on?

Matt Murdock: Please do.

Elektra: Now you think we’re flirting. Your mind’s racing. You’re wondering what piece of wit you can think of next. Know what your problem is? You’re pretty, but dumb. Too dumb to know the game is already over and you lost before you stepped to the plate.

Matt Murdock: You got that all from a pair of wingtips?

Elektra: Quick study.

Matt Murdock: You know what I think?

Elektra: Tell me.

Matt Murdock: You’re bored. Bored of the parties, the faculties, all of it.

Elektra: And I need just the right bad boy to take me away from all this. Is that it?

Matt Murdock: Basically.

Elektra: Know something, you’re right. (takes drink and drinks it) Let’s go.

Check out pics of the Daredevil costume currently on display at the Directors Guild of America in Los Angeles.

It’s currently unknown if the display is open for public viewing as it was a part of a Netflix event.

Redditor Empyrealist offers the Daredevil display is located in the main lobby of the building so it may be accessible to the general public.

Marvel is currently working on Daredevil Season 2 which debuts next year.
