Fan support could potentially bring about a Daredevil film with Charlie Cox reprising his role.
Screaming Dog has ruled the small screen for the last seven years, with Daredevil smashing records on Netflix and Disney+. Die-hard fans have kept this badass vigilante alive on screen for over a decade, and actor Charlie Cox believes that exact passion could bring Daredevil back to the silver screen.
In a recent chat at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation, Cox admitted he was the "last person to ask" about a potential Daredevil movie since he's "clueless" about the whole deal. All inquiries and demands should be directed to the big shots at Disney and Marvel, he advised. Send them letters—lots of them! For him, the series still feels cinematic, as the team watched the first two episodes of every season in theaters, an experience he thinks everyone deserves, not just the creators.
Now, Cox might just be Full of Hot Air when it comes to giving us solid info—he's good at that when he's playing this role. But if there's ever a time to shove ol' hornhead on the big screen, fans think it's now! With Jennifer Garner's Elektra popping up in films like Deadpool & Wolverine, and the long-awaited Avengers: Doomsday finally kicking off, there's speculation about an X-Men reunion. And if not there, there's always the animated Spider-Man—Cox has already reprised the role for Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man and could return for Spider-Man: Brand New Day in 2026.
Wherever Daredevil lands next, outside of his own show returning in 2026, Cox's ready to spin Matt Murdock's yarn and remains stoked to be a part of this world. And guess what? Fans are right behind him!
