Fan Support Might Be Adequate to Instigate a Daredevil Film, Believes Charlie Cox
Since 2015, the immensely popular character Daredevil has been a mainstay on small screens, featuring in two shows on Netflix and Disney+. Fans have kept the character alive on television for the past decade, and actor Charlie Cox believes the same fervor could potentially bring the Man without Fear back to the big screen.
In a recent interview at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation, Cox stated that he was the wrong person to ask about the possibility of a Daredevil movie, as he has little information about it. He suggested that any inquiries or demands should be directed to Disney and Marvel, stating, "Write letters, just everyone write letters." For Cox, the show's theater screenings for the cast and crew hint at a cinematic future, something he firmly believes is deserved for everyone, not just those involved in production.
While Cox may be playing coy, fans think now could be the optimal time for a Daredevil film, given recent developments. The recents reintroduction of Jennifer Garner's Elektra in Deadpool & Wolverine, and the postponed Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars, which may bring back the old X-Men, provide potential avenues. Perhaps notably, Cox has already reprised the role for the animated Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, and the Spider-Man: Brand New Day project slated for 2026.
Wherever Daredevil might reappear outside his own show returning in 2026, Cox remains eager to tell Matt Murdock's story, expressing his continued excitement for the role. And based on fan enthusiasm, it seems they are ready to follow him on any adventure.
