Trivia: Following this film's critical and commercial failure, the studio discussed the idea of a prequel, which was described as being John McClane's origin story, with a younger actor taking over the lead role. This idea was largely rejected by fans, as they felt the first film in the series functions as McClane's origin story.

Suggested correction: This is simply wrong. If a month starts on a Thursday, the first Tuesday will be the 6th, and the second will be the 13th.

I messed up the wording on this. The calendar in question literally shows the 13th as being the second Tuesday in the calendar grid format (i.e. there is one row indicating a week above). The 13th should be placed in the third row in this manner.

Trivia: This series was roughly halfway through filming when Marvel suddenly scrapped it and decided to start over, including hiring a showrunner (a first for a Marvel Disney+ series). Reportedly, the original writing had a very legal procedural format, and Matt Murdock didn't even suit up as Daredevil until the fourth episode. In the process of revamping the series, Marvel decided to officially make the original Netflix show canon to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
