Charlie Cox Wants To Bring DAREDEVIL Back To The Big Screen In Standalone Movie
Charlie Cox recently revealed that his contract includes an option to appear on the big screen as the Man Without Fear, and while he admits here that the chances of a Captain America: Civil War cameo are slim, the British actor is far more interested in a Daredevil solo outing...
The original plans for Marvel's TV shows on Netflix was that they would each receive a single season before being teamed up for The Defenders. However, the overwhelmingly positive response to Daredevil resulted in The Man Without Fear getting a second season next year, and fans are already making it clear that they want to see his take on Matt Murdock on the big screen. Will it happen in Captain America: Civil War? "Well he’s in the comics, but I think they’re already… I think I might have missed that boat..." Cox admits. "So unless someone watches the show and falls so madly in love with it that they decide to get me in for a day, that would be great, but I have no idea." Of course, it was actually Iron Fist in the Civil War comic book, but that was explained in the character's solo title as a retcon of sorts because Matt was supposed to be in jail at the time the event took place. As of right now, the chances of a cameo do seem slim.
Not to worry though as rumour has it that Daredevil and his fellow Defenders will all appear in Avengers: Infinity War! Cox meanwhile also told IGN that he's very keen on giving the character his own solo outing somewhere down the line. "Yeah that would be awesome – I’d love to do that. I love doing the TV show and I love that we have so much more time to explore the origin story and real deal with character and inner conflict, and spend a lot of time brooding in that world and those feelings, which is unusual for a superhero. And usually when you’ve got a two-hour movie it’s action-packed, and so I think that’s one of the things that the show has really benefitted from – having that extra time to really get to know and sit with these characters and see them as humans. But I’d love to see Daredevil on the big screen again. It would be great. And if I could be involved with that I’d be thrilled." There's no way Kevin Feige and the rest of the Marvel Studios team will have missed Daredevil being called the best comic book adaptation of all-time by some critics, so a Phase 4 movie is probably a very likely possibility...do you want a Daredevil movie?
