Marvel Studios presents Avengers: Age of Ultron, the epic follow-up to the biggest Super Hero movie of all time. When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance.

A very important character has been cast in the upcoming Netflix series, Marvel’s Daredevil. Glenn Scott (Sucker Punch, Urban Cowboy) will play the character Stick, a blind martial artist who trains Matt Murdock during his path to becoming Daredevil. Stick was created by Frank Miller, Stick is also the mentor to another famous Daredevil character, Elektra.
We are still waiting on confirmation of if the femme fatale will be a part of the initial launch of the show and who will play her. Rosario Dawson is the top contender for this role. Look forward to our report from NYCC when the stars of this highly anticipated show hits the stage!
“Stick is one of the most important figures in Matt Murdock’s life and Scott Glenn embodies all the qualities of someone so integral to this hero’s journey,” said Jeph Loeb, Marvel’s Head of Television. “There are few actors who could bring such the authenticity, gravitas and charisma to such a key role in Matt’s journey to become the super hero we call Daredevil.”
