'Daredevil' Season 2 News, Update: Rosario Dawson Believes The Punisher Will 'Raise The Stakes So Much More'
Despite her limited appearance in Netflix's hit superhero action-drama series "Daredevil," cast member Rosario Dawson still put high regards on her character and looks forward as to where Claire's arc will go.
"She's funny, she's wry, she's strong — she's built for that world, because she's great under pressure. She's someone — hero or not — you'd want to have in a dire situation … I really just liked her arc all the way through," Dawson told MTV News during the recent E3 event this week.
"I'm looking forward to seeing where that goes, because her eyes have been opened up to this other world — and she's crossed the line. You know, this is someone who helps people, and she's been violent now but seeing the need for it. I think there's a lot that she's having to grapple with, and I think that's what's exciting about using this show to explore street-level characters: it makes it that much more closer to us," the actress added.
Dawson, however, admitted that she still doesn't have a clue as to how the writers would want Claire to appear in the upcoming chapter.
"I have no idea how they're wanting me to come back or in which way, shape or form, but it's nice to know that I've got a character who does kind of string everyone together and bring all those worlds together," she explained.
The "Seven Pounds" actress also made her comment about the inclusion of another vengeful Marvel character, the Punisher, which will be played by Jon Bernthal. She said that the latter will surely "raise the stakes" in Season 2.
"That's going to raise the stakes so much more, because Matt Murdock almost behaves like the Punisher in the first season ... [Matt] crosses the line quite often, so it's going to be really interesting to see how they differentiate them and where that goes," Dawson said.
"Daredevil" Season 2 will soon be available for streaming on Netflix in 2016.
