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?

He is contractually obligated to appear in a movie if need be. If the show continues its success, why not give him a film down the road. I understand that DD seems to fit the tv mold a lot better and his story and world works better in a serialized manner but I'd like a film. A big crime thriller movie. That'd be cool.. maybe a Black Widow team up or spidey team up like he's done in the comics

Having a solo movie will be perhaps confusing with the main audience who goes to the cinema but don't watch show. But I'm all for Daredevil appears in other characters movie if it makes sense. For sure Spidey is a favourite one, but I'm afraid we have to wait a second solo film to see both of them together.
I still hope for a little cameo in Civil War though.

I can't see him appearing in anything besides Infinity War or Cap 3.

But sadly that's not gonna happen :(

I think keep the street level characters on Netflix for about 5 seasons. As long as the quality stays high.
There are too many Marvel characters that need the movie treatment & others for TV series.
Spread the wealth & lets see all the cool Marvel U in live action.

With a potential Mockinbird show coming up though, it would be good publicity to have her involved in Civil War
DO IT MARVEL



She could be a friend of Black Widow and Hawkeye,
I'd love to see some banter with Clint

I think cameos in films works best early on. Ease him into the movies and then maybe give him a film. Ut I like the Netflix platform

Civil War appearance as the Captain's Lawyer if he gets placed on trial for retaliating against the regestration act. I'll just keep saying it until I speak it into existence. :,)

Like DruZod said, it's not as connected as they claim.

They're so reluctant to crossover TV characters into the movies.

Best ongoing show ever, after Game of Thrones and Vikings. Can't wait to see more of him. Here's hoping he features in Civil War, even for one small scene.

I can understand why he'd want this, but why would the fans want this? Trade in 13 hrs of almost R-rated violence and excellent slow-burn character development for a PG-13 two hours?

If War Machine and Falcon can be featured in Avengers movies, then Daredevil definitely belongs even if it is a cameo

I think it would have been cool for Murdock to have been part of Cap's new team of Avengers at the end of AOU. He can still have Season 2 as a solo hero- maybe have the team broken after the end of Civil War and so he goes back to Hell's Kitchen, just as the Hand and Elektra arrive to cause havoc....

@DruZod

That was the comment of a director that's leaving. Until Kevin Feige says they are independent of each other, they are most certainly in the same universe.

Whedon did not say mcu coulson is still dead. He said as far as the film characters know he's still dead. You guys are constantly over analyzing things. It's a connected universe. If it wasn't connected they wouldn't have made the references to film events in all of the shows.

I'm really wondering how their going to eventually bring AOShield into the big screen MCU.... Whedon was saying how Coulson needs to stay dead in AOU because his death meant something in Avengers 1, so I wonder how they'll handle that....

I'm starting to think Coulson is going to die soon and AOS is going to go in a slightly different direction, then I think there's a better chance of having them appear in Civil War or future movies, or definitely The Inhumans

Mockingbird would be cool though, but I don't know if she would fit as just a friend to Hawkeye

Look DD deserves a movie, idc what anyone says. I think Born Again would be a great film!

I think I actually like Netflix for Daredevil while having him cameo in the movies....

Definitely have him cameo and have a part in the movies but have his own stories told on Netflix, I don't think he needs a big screen solo movie, especially when he has 13 episodes of Netflix

This season was Awesome.

Born Again would be amazing as one season of DD. Imagine the buildup and slow burn development of it all. The season could have the subtitle Born Again. Watching Kingpin systematically destRoy every facet of Matt's life would make for great televIsion. "Now homeless, Murdock begins suffering from paranoia and extreme aggression. He is continuously followed by the Kingpin's subordinates, who provide the Kingpin with frequent updates on his mental state, as he has become obsessed with the fruits of his scheme to destroy Murdock."

This would be so cool to see. DD broken completely.

As long as he stays the [frick] out of the Avengers, let him do whatever he wants.
