Marvel announced Scott Glenn (The Silence of the Lambs, The Hunt for Red October, The Bourne Ultimatum) will join the Daredevil Netflix series.
Glenn will play Stick, the mysterious martial arts master and mentor of Matt Murdock (to be played by Charlie Cox.)
“Stick is one of the most important figures in Matt Murdock’s life and Scott Glenn embodies all the qualities of someone so integral to this hero’s journey,” said Jeph Loeb, Marvel’s Head of Television with Marvel.com.
“There are few actors who could bring such the authenticity, gravitas and charisma to such a key role in Matt’s journey to become the super hero we call Daredevil.”
Stick also trained Elektra. The character was played by Terence Stamp in that film.
Daredevil arrives in 2015 along with Netflix series starring Luke Cage, Iron Fist and Jessica Jones.
