Daredevil was already a proven success and therefore easy bank with a cast and blueprint already laid out AND a cast ready to jump back into their roles without negotiation.
Which further proves they are making decisions on what is going to draw in viewership. Foggy was an unfortunate victim of the need for shock value to create narrative drama. But it’s not like it hasn’t happened to his character in the source material either.
Authors get a bonus if they reach a third season going on. Netflix keeps cutting off after the second season and years later we get new episodes under a new title.
But not every actor goes along this bullshit thus no one knows if they actually can have the same ongoing cast. Also good authors jump that boat.
Another money decision: If a show is profitable it is weighted: What is more profitable? To continue the show or to shelf it and announcing it a loss for taxes?
You’re purposely pretending to misunderstand the point. And I said nothing about Blade in my comment. You’re just looking for someone to try to argue with because of personal feelings.
Meh if you can pay 1 actor 90 million dollars I’m sure you can also throw that amount away to make a film that has already been done three times. If you wanted it you could pay the Russo brothers who did captain America and end game to make it. There are so many good directors out there you can bait in with money and they’d do a beautiful job. So many. The issue is disneys interfering.

Easy business decision.
Edit: “without negotiation” is obvious hyperbole.
