Philip Silvere clarifies: “I don’t take action pg!” And that’s exactly what Marvel made him do with Daredevil

The Marvel universe is bright again, but this time it is not for a multicolored portal or for a galactic struggle. Is why Matt Murdock is backand not as no justice, but like the Authentic demon of Hell’s Kitchen cuisine That fans worshiped in Netflix. And behind its brutal fights there is a name that is already synonymous with raw and filters: Philip Silvera.

Silvera, veteran in the MCU and head of the wildest choreography of The punisher And the first seasons of DaredevilHe returned to direct the action Born againThis time like Specialized supervisor and director of the second unit. And according to himself he said in an interview with Screenrant, Violence has not only returned … has evolved.

Violence with soul and sequences designed by emotion

“It’s not just a punch. It is contained anger. It’s pain. It’s revenge.”

Silvera did not come to play, and this exhibition. From the first episode we have already sensed that this is not a restart. “Marvel knew he wanted to go to the dark“Silvera says, celebrating the signature of Dario Scardapane As a showrunner, with whom he has already worked The punisher. That connection was the key to the series to resume the raw and emotional tone that called Netflix Daredevil.

One of the most powerful sequences had to be redone for “logistical reasons”, but finished Muse y kingpin. “We wanted that Daredevil seemed to kill again,” says Silvera. And yes, he understands it. The anger is felt, the accelerated pulse, the emotional chaos of Matt Murdock in every shot.

Muse, the Joker who deserved Daredevil

“It’s like Joker’s version in the world of Daredevil. Caotic, violent and poetic.”

One of the big purchases of this new stage was the Musea bad insane that becomes the The perfect antithesis of Daredevil. To design his fighting style, Silvera opted for a mixture between fencing and chaotic brushstrokes. “Fight as if I had painted the knives“He says. A visual and narrative madness that culminates with a brutal shock with Matt Murdock.

And be careful, because Silvera also launches a dart from the Hype imagining a possible struggle between Frank Castle y Bullseye: “I don’t know how both would be alive. It would be a butcher shop.” We leave him, Kevin Feige.

The devil not only affects … flies too

“Marvel has evolved. There is Parkour, there is a flight, but it is still Daredevil.”

Born again Not only does it recover the essence: it also expands it. Silvera underlines it now Acrobatic skills are explored more by Daredevil. The result is a perfect balance between spectacular and credibility. No excessive CGI: a lot Capture of the movementI work with double and “most beautiful and wider movements.”

And if we talk about changes, we cannot ignore the New black dress This will be seen in the second season. We still don’t know why you bring it, but Silvera is enthusiastic: “I think the second season will be my favorite story of the entire series“.

Bullseye vs. Daredevil, a choreography of knives and pain

“Bullseye is a lethal precision. Daredevil is a brute force. On a staircase. It was a choreograpia nightmare.”

For Silvera, the Most complex fight of the entire season It was the duel between Bullseye and Daredevil on a scale. I didn’t want it to be another fists, but a deadly dance in which every movement had a cause and effect. “A blade is launched, another block, the third reaches it. Everything is designed according to the second“, Explains.

Silvera recognizes that it was an extreme challenge for him and for the cast, but also one of the most rewarding moments. “I don’t want to do something so complicated soon,” he jokes. But we all know, knowing it, he will do it again. It is better.

Daredevil: born again prepares the earth for a return with style

The series is not over, but has already marked the territory. Daredevil is back, more violent, more emotional and more spectacular than ever. And with the filming of the second season already in progress, everything indicates that the best is yet to come. Silvera confirms it: “Every moment between Kingpin and Daredevil is pure fire. And there is still a lot to see“.

So you know: if you thought Born again It would be a softened version of Daredevil we knew … Take the rosary well, because hell is back.
