MARVEL TV IN NEW YORK: Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, The Walt Disney Company, Marvel and Netflix have announced that Marvel's live-action Netflix television series featuring "flawed heroes of Hell's Kitchen" characters will principally film in New York State.

Daredevil will be the first series from Marvel and Netflix to film in New York City. Filming is set to begin this summer and will create at least three thousand jobs in New York State including up to 400 full time jobs. The project will include nearly 60 one-hour episodes focused on four Defenders characters: Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist.

"New York is where the entertainment industry started, and this unprecedented commitment from Disney and Marvel is further evidence that we're bringing it back bigger and better than ever before," said Governor Cuomo. "And when the entertainment industry thrives, it fuels dozens of other industries and businesses. The competition for these projects is fierce and Disney could have chosen to film these shows anywhere, but they knew that shooting in New York means getting to work with the best in world. These shows bring New York's super heroes home where they belong--along with hundreds of jobs and millions of dollars in new business."
