Steven DeKnight, the former showrunner of Daredevil, was at one point working on the recently announced Conan series for Netflix.
Conan fans got a big piece of good news today with the announcement that Netflix is currently working on a brand new TV series.
The franchise seems to be coming back in a big way and at one point in time, Steven DeKnight – the former showrunner for Netflix’s Daredevil – was leading the project.
Speaking on Twitter (via ComicBook.com) in response to the Conan news, DeKnight said: “Sad but true: I was attached to spearhead this before Netflix and I parted ways.”

DeKnight exited his deal and the project last year. Fans of Daredevil know full well what he can achieve when running a TV series so its a shame this didn’t pan out. Hopefully, Conan will be a big success regardless.
