Marvel Has Cast Elden Henson as Foggy Nelson in Daredevil

Marvel continues to fill out the cast of their first Netflix series by today casting Hunger Games actor Elden Henson to play Matt Murdock’s (Daredevil) best friend and law partner.  Nelson is a pivotal role in the series and he’s one of my favorite characters in comics.  Honestly, I have no memory of seeing Henson in anything so this is an instance where I’m going to have to trust Marvel.  Charlie Cox has been cast as Daredevil, Vincent D’onofrio as Wilson Fisk aka The Kingpin and Rosario Dawson has been added to the cast in a role that has not been specificied yet.  The speculation is Elektra, but I don’t see that.  She’d make a better Echo if they were going to utilize that character.  Details from Marvel below.  Daredevil will premiere on Netflix in 2015.
