Fan support could potentially spark the creation of a new Daredevil film, according to Charlie Cox.
Title: Daredevil Continues His Battles on Screen: A Look Ahead
Ever since 2015, Daredevil has been a force to be reckoned with on our screens across Netflix and Disney+. This beloved character has kept fans enthralled for over a decade, and actor Charlie Cox believes that the same passion might just see Man without Fear return to the big screen.
During a recent chat at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation, Cox admitted that he's the last person to ask about the prospects of a Daredevil film. Any inquiries should be directed to the big guns - Disney and Marvel. "So, write letters, just everyone write letters," he suggested. Cox believes the show has a cinematic feel to it, given that the cast and crew watched the first two episodes of each season in theaters, something he fervently thinks fans deserve as well.
Now, Cox might be pulling our legs every now and then when it comes to portraying this character, but if there was ever a time to reel in Daredevil for the silver screen, this could be it. The recent revival of Deadpool and Wolverine has reminded audiences of Jennifer Garner's Elektra, a character from the 2003 Daredevil movie. And with the postponed Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars, and old X-Men making a comeback for one last hurrah, the stage could be set for Daredevil to make an appearance. And if not there, he might just swing by Spider-Man: Cox has already donned the Daredevil suit for the animated Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, and the 2026's Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
Wherever Daredevil makes his next grand entrance outside of his own show's return in 2026, Cox is ready to pick up Matt Murdock's story and is "so thrilled to be here." And with fans backing him every step of the way, we can't wait to see where ol' hornhead goes next.
As for upcoming Daredevil appearances outside of the upcoming series Daredevil: Born Again, nothing has been officially confirmed. However, with Marvel expressing interest in bringing back other Defenders members, a mini-series or special featuring Daredevil alongside other street-level heroes is a possibility. Keep an eye out for any official announcements from Marvel about Matt Murdock's involvement in future MCU projects.
