Fan Support Could Potentially Trigger a Daredevil Film Featuring Charlie Cox
In a recent interview at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation, Charlie Cox, the acclaimed actor portraying Daredevil, indicated his hope for a big-screen return of the Marvel character. Regardless of his limited knowledge about the matter, citing that decisions lie with Disney and Marvel, Cox expressed his enthusiasm in reprising the role and encouraged fans to voice their enthusiasm through correspondence.
Whilst there has been no definitive confirmation regarding a standalone Daredevil movie, Cox's statements highlight the potential impact of fan engagement on film industry decisions. Fans have long kept the character on television screens, with Daredevil dominating the small screen since 2015 across two Netflix and Disney Plus series.
The possibility of a solo Daredevil film becomes more alluring given recent Marvel Cinematic Universe developments. The reintroduction of Jennifer Garner's Elektra character in films such as Deadpool and Wolverine, and potential crossovers like Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars, are likely to bring back the old X-Men cast for one final hurrah. Moreover, Cox has already reprised the role for the animated Spider-Man projects, Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, and Spider-Man: Brand New Day in 2026.
Marvel Studios' receptiveness to reintroducing characters from previous series, such as Jessica Jones in the Daredevil: Born Again series, offers an optimistic outlook for the future of the Daredevil franchise. With the return of Daredevil: Born Again slated for March 2026, fans eagerly await the opportunity to follow Cox's portrayal of Matt Murdock on new adventures.
