Like DeKnight and executive producer Drew Goddard (who was previously set to showrun the first season), Petrie is a Whedonverse veteran, having written for <strong><em>Buffy<\/em><\/strong> and <strong><em>Angel<\/em><\/strong>, as well as <strong><em>Pushing Daisies<\/em><\/strong> and <strong><em>American Horror Story<\/em><\/strong>. Ramirez has written for <strong><em>Sons Of Anarchy<\/em><\/strong>,<strong><em> Orange Is The New Black<\/em><\/strong> and <strong><em>Da Vinci&#8217;s Demons<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The two of them are also responsible for some of the first season&#8217;s best episodes. Petrie wrote &#8216;Stick&#8217;, &#8216;The Ones We Leave Behind&#8217; and &#8216;The Path Of The Righteous&#8217;, while Ramirez wrote &#8216;Rabbit In A Snowstorm&#8217; and &#8216;Condemned.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>DeKnight stated &#8220;While previous commitments unfortunately prevent me from continuing on with <strong><em>Daredevil<\/em><\/strong> into its second season, I could not be happier that Doug Petrie and Marco Ramirez are carrying the torch. They were invaluable collaborators during our first season, and I for one can&#8217;t wait to see what they do with the show moving forward.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Goddard and Jeph Loeb will stay on as executive producers.<\/p>\n<p>Next up is <strong><em>AKA Jessica Jones<\/em><\/strong> later this year, while Luke Cage is also set for 2016. Somewhere down the line is <strong><em>Iron Fist<\/em><\/strong> and the <strong><em>Defenders<\/em><\/strong> series.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Marvel&#8217;s Daredevil<\/em> is streaming on Netflix now.
