Daredevil actor Peter Shinkoda alleges that his storyline in the Netflix television series, which ran between 2015 and 2018 was cut because former Marvel Television chief Jeph Loeb said "nobody cares about Asian people".

Apologising to his fellow co-stars Tommy Walker and Geoffrey Cantor, who were also on the call, the Canadian actor said: "I'm going to take this moment ... because - because I just have to."
