Marvel doesn’t want fans to associate its Netflix “Daredevil” reboot with the Ben Affleck film adaptation released in 2003.

Marvel's Head of Television Jeph Loeb spoked to Comic Book Resources's Jonah Weiland during an interview on Los Angeles's KFI AM 640, ComicBook.com reports. Loeb explained the if fans wanted to know what the new “Daredevil” series won’t be like, all they had to do was watch the film.

"When we started talking to our actors and to our directors, this is with all due respect to the film, if you want to know what we're not doing, go watch the movie,” Loeb said.

“If you want to know what we're doing, it's very much steeped in the world of the comics, but it also has a life of its own and that's really what television and our films really do is that we take the best....We hope and we're very confident that this is the beginning of something that's very exciting on Netflix."

Loeb also spoke about the Marvel wanting to tell the story of their “street-level” heroes. Loeb used the “Avengers” franchise to put “Daredevil” into perspective.

"When I watched The Avengers, which is really one of my favorite movies, during the scene when the sky opens up, the Chitauri are coming and there's a giant battle over by Grand Central Station,” Loeb said.

“Even in the theater I was thinking, 'In the true Marvel Universe if you go about ten blocks over and an avenue down, there's a place called Hell's Kitchen and in that world are characters like Daredevil and Jessica Jones and Luke Cage, Hero for Hire, and those characters are not going to be involved in an inter-warfare-universe-colliding incident....”

"We wanted to have an opportunity to be able to tell stories about our street-level heroes and how that they could possibly interact in the world of Marvel without it feeling like it's completely detached and by the same token feeling like it's part of that world.”

The cast of Marvel’s “Daredevil” series is set to make an appearance at New York Comic Con on Oct. 11.
