The president of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige has dropped the biggest hint yet that Charlie Cox will return as Daredevil in the MCU.
In November 2018, Marvel’s Daredevil series on Netflix was unceremoniously cancelled. At around the same time, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist and Luke Cage also faced the chopping block.
Daredevil and Jessica Jones were the most hard hit by the fans, as they were two fantastic shows that fans wanted to see more of. In fairness, in my opinion, by the time season two had ended, Iron Fist had also improved greatly. Though I can’t say the same for Luke Cage, it is what it is.
As reported by Screen Rant in September, Jessica Jones actress Krysten Ritter expressed her desire to bring the character to the MCU. Unfortunately, not much else has been said in regard to Jessica Jones returning. But we can live in hope.
However, a clear indication has been given that Charlie Cox might return as Daredevil in the MCU one day as implied by the Marvel Studios president. While on the topic of Charlie Cox returning as Matt Murdock aka Daredevil, when speaking to Cinemablend:
“If you were to see Daredevil in upcoming things, Charlie Cox, yes, would be the actor playing Daredevil,” said Feige. “Where we see that how we see that, when we see that, remains to be seen.”
Could it finally happen?
As a big Daredevil fan that was very begrudged to see the Netflix series never conclude, this is the news I’ve been waiting for, and I know I am not alone. It was a fantastic series that also cast Vincent D’onofrio brilliantly as Kingpin.
Without giving anything away while watching the Hawkeye series on Disney Plus, I had a feeling that certain seeds are being planted. However, that is just my opinion, and I could be totally wrong. Though I really hope that I am not.
