(after he ended up getting Elektra's father killed)
Daredevil: I tried, Father. I tried... This is who I am.
  • Cuba Gooding Jr. wanted the lead role but was not approached.
  • The Braille writing on the charm/pendant spells "Ailektra". First character is single dot in the middle - Braille letter "A" (characters with dots only in first column "K" and "L" are placed in the middle).
  • In the Director's Cut, a policeman was to commit perjury on the stand. While Daredevil's sense allow him to detect perjury (since people's hearts tend to beat faster when not telling the truth, and heightened senses allows one to detect the heart beating faster), the policeman's perjury receives a false negative for the simple reason that the policeman had a pacemaker in his heart, which regulated his heartbeat. A similar incident happened in Daredevil #184, where a man with a pacemaker also received a false negative.
  • The film was originally envisioned as R-rated with nudity and hard violence.
  • Daredevil made his first appearance in a Marvel comic in 1964.
