Daredevil's Amy Rutberg Says Netflix, Not Marvel, Is to Blame for Cancellation

Daredevil‘s Amy Rutberg, who played the role of Marci Stahl on Netflix and Marvel‘s now cancelled series is speaking out about the sudden cancellation.

“My contacts at Marvel were very surprised,” Amy told Inverse magazine. “Any of the rumors that it was a Marvel decision are wrong, I think it was purely a Netflix decision. That comes from personal conversations with people high up at Marvel. They were surprised.”

Amy continued, “We had heard rumors we would start production as early as February 2019. It’s a little unusual to be that far ahead in the planning and cancel the show, which makes me think Netflix was laboring over whether or not to cancel it. My guess was it was not an easy decision.”

Many had assumed Marvel had pulled the plug on the show after the cancellations of Luke Cage and Iron Fist.
