They could make a movie now.
Even with the MCU banner. Make it serious like The Winter Soldier or Infinity War.

I put ideas in for Daredevil in movies. I'd like to have a Sinister Six movie, Secret Wars movie and Heroes for Hire movie.

Oh man, Heroes for Hire would be sweet.

The big screen is great, but I think TV shows provide a better opportunity to really delve deep into the characters. You can only fit so much into movies, and there's always a chance the next one will be cancelled if one movie in the franchise doesn't do well.
shareThis can depend sometimes though. Either way, now that Daredevil has had his time in the smaller screen, he deserves on another chance on the big screen. He’s one of Marvel’s biggest characters and he deserves to shine on the big screen.
Admittedly, the Netflix show did “kinda” make the good argument that Daredevil’s place should be on the smaller screen. That being said, I’d say if anyone can make a Daredevil film work, it’s Marvel themselves. And frankly, to see Daredevil/Matt Murdock sharing the screen with some of his fellow Marvel icons (bigger icons) would be fantastic. Then again, I suppose now this can happen even on the smaller screen since all the upcoming Marvel shows will be produced by Marvel Studios and they’ll be interlinked with the MCU for real this time. But still, the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen should leave his mark on the big screen.
As for the possibility of a future film in the franchise not doing well, well so far the MCU hasn’t really had that problem in forever (it was actually nothing but wins for them this last decade), and right now the upcoming film slate looks very promising. As such, Daredevil making his way to the big screen sounds good to me!
I don't know. I'm still kind of burned because I really liked both the Amazing Spider-Man movies and I was looking forward to the third one when I heard it got cancelled. This goes back to my disappointment about there not being a Spider-Man 4 with Tobey Maguire, even though Spider-Man 3 was colossally terrible. I got so tired of constantly hearing about a new Spider-Man reboot that I stopped following Spider-Man altogether, not to mention I saw Spider-Man Homecoming once in theaters and wasn't the slightest bit impressed. I also really do not follow the Marvel movies - they tend to bore me.
I haven't read the comics, but I also did really like Daredevil when it was brought to the screen the first time starring Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner. I don't really see what's so terrible about it. I think some problems with superhero movies have to do with the fact that the comics of any superhero tends to be very extensive, and no matter what you do there will always be fans you piss off because you cut this or you changed that. That's why I believe TV series tend to be a better fit for superhero stories than movies.
I could argue that all that extra time is unnecessary. Because most of the Daredevil show was just 60% Filler with everybody talking some bullshit. Just to pad out the episode. A movie is fucking welcome at this point. If it was well done and was emotional impactful. It would make everyone forget this lame show.
