Charlie Cox Believes A PG-13 DAREDEVIL "Can Work," But Would Prefer The Character To "Live In A Darker Space"

Charlie Cox made his long-awaited return as Matt Murdock/Daredevil in Spider-Man: No Way Home, and will reprise the role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe at some point in the future. We're still not sure where the character will show up next, but there's a very good chance he won't be quite as violent as he was in his own Netflix series!

It was recently announced that Daredevil and the other Marvel Netflix shows will be added to Disney+ with a parental control option, and Cox was asked for his thoughts on this and the likelihood of The Man Without Fear being toned down somewhat for his new MCU adventures.

"I wouldn’t put it past the folks at Marvel to be able to accomplish that," Cox said when asked about the prospect of a PG-13 take on DD during an interview with ComicBook.com. "I’m such a fan of everything they’ve done so far, I wouldn’t underestimate them at all… so if they wanted to make a more PG version of Daredevil, I back them to find a way to do where it feels totally in keeping with everything we’ve done. And maybe there’s a little less blood, maybe there’s a little whatever, but I back them to do it."

While Cox believes a more family-friendly Daredevil can work, he feels the character is better suited to living in a "darker space."

“It absolutely can work, but I guess what you can’t deny is Daredevil is never going to work as well in a PG world as Spider-Man does. Do you know what I mean? That’s the point - I think that the age of the character, the Christian guilt, his history with women and stuff, it’s like it’s a little bit more mature... it has to be.”

Though all MCU big-screen releases (so far) have been PG-13, some have gone pretty dark when needs be, and the studio has proven to have a solid grasp on the necessary tone to bring different characters to life.
