Fan Support Might Be Adequate for a Daredevil Film, According to Charlie Cox
Daredevil's Next Destination on the Small Screen
Since 2015, Daredevil has been a force to reckon with, gracing the small screen across two shows on Netflix and Disney+. And the passion from fans has kept this fan-favorite character alive in the TV landscape for over a decade. Charlie Cox, who plays the blind vigilante, reckons this same passion could potentially bring ol' hornhead back to the big screen.
In a candid chat at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation, Cox shared that he's not the right person to ask about the likelihood of a Daredevil movie, since he's clueless about it. Any queries should be directed to the bigwigs, aka Disney and Marvel. "Pen some letters, just everyone, write letters," he emphasized. For Cox, the show isn't too distant from the big-screen experience, given that the cast and crew got to watch the first two episodes of every season in theaters, which he believes ought to be "granted" for fans, not just the creators.
Now, Cox might just be pulling our leg, a skill he's quite adept at when it comes to embodying this character. However, if there's ever the right moment to tender him the silver screen, fans think it's now. Jennifer Garner's Elektra, hailing from the 2003 Daredevil and her solo flick, recently resurfaced in Deadpool & Wolverine. The postponed Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars are also looking to give the old X-Men gang a fitting farewell. And if those don't work, there's always Spider-Man: Cox has already reprised the role for the animated Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, and Spider-Man: Brand New Day scheduled for 2026.
The exact venue for Daredevil's impending comeback outside of his own show in 2026 remains undecided. Nevertheless, with the intricate web of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), there's a strong possibility that he might turn up in other MCU projects. In 2026, Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 is set to premiere in March, featuring familiar faces and new characters, with a narrative leaning towards the darker side[1][3][4]. No announcements regarding Daredevil's involvement in other MCU projects for 2026 have been made as of yet, but the show is expected to play a significant role in setting up or contributing to the larger MCU narrative for that year[1][4].
