Although season one Daredevil showrunner, Steven DeKnight has discussed some of the comic characters who could appear in the show’s second season, he’s also been a little coy — probably because he knew he wouldn’t be back. If reports about these actresses auditions are valid (the videos were quickly yanked, perhaps lending credence to their authenticity), plans are already in motion for Elektra’s appearance.

Originally reported by @Marvel_Spider, the auditions contained conversation between Elektra and Matt Murdoch when the two met at college, and between Elektra and an adversary; Comicbook.com has a transcript of the actual dialogue.

The actresses auditioning were Louisa Mignone (Infini, Rake, Nocturn):

and relative newcomer (though she has done theater), Shiva Kalaiselvan:

And yeah, it’s nice to see they’re looking at other than white actresses for the “Greek girl” part.

Daredevil is set to return to Netflix in 2016.
