Rumours that we'll see Charlie Cox return as Matt Murdock in Spider-Man: No Way Home continue to persist, and while the actor has previously denied those claims, it seems he's now choosing his words a little more carefully. During an interview with Forbes, Cox was asked about all the speculation surrounding his MCU future and seemed wary of confirming or denying his Daredevil future.
"I don't really tend to think about it that much. I'm just conscious of when I'm asked about it," he admitted. "I don't want to ruin anything for fans either way."
"My answer is no comment; I don't know what's going to happen. I genuinely don't know. If there was a chance of that happening in the future, I don't want to say something that could potentially jeopardize those chances," Cox continued. "The people high up at Marvel, maybe they see this stuff, or they hear what I say or blah, blah, blah...maybe that influences it."
This certainly doesn't sound good for anyone looking forward to seeing him join the MCU after appearing in Marvel Television's Nextflix shows, but it's feasible he's simply looking to throw us off the scent. Either way, Cox acknowledged that he's grateful to the fans for their continued support.
"I don't know, I have no idea. I love how passionate the fans are and I feel very, very touched that so many of them have gone online and made their voices heard about their desire for me to come back, and maybe in the future that might happen, and that would be great. Who knows? We'll see."
According to online scoopers, we'll first see Cox in Spider-Man: No Way Home before he brings Daredevil back to the small screen in She-Hulk. Both projects are a good fit for the Man Without Fear, but whether this is just wishful thinking or something that will really happen remains to be seen.
If the introduction of the Multiverse has done anything, though, it's opened the door to the possibility of Cox being given the opportunity to return as a new version of his Marvel Television vigilante.
