While Marvel Studios has never really shied away from embracing comic-accurate costumes, the Marvel Television TV shows did appear to have that old-fashioned way of thinking by trying to put a "realistic" spin on the characters' outfits. There were some fun nods here and there, and Daredevil did get a suit, but for the most part, they disappointed (see: Inhumans).
In the Man Without Fear's case, he had a red (and black) suit that was sorely lacking one key component: that classic "DD" logo on its chest. While that may seem like a minor omission to many of you, would you want to see Batman or Spider-Man head into action without their logos?
Talking to ComicBook.com, actor Charlie Cox shared his hopes for Daredevil's costume to evolve in the MCU. "If there is some new suit or if it does morph or change or it's redone or whatever, it will be so much more fun for the fans to just have that moment of like, 'Oh shit, that's what it is.'"
"What I would say is, I've always liked the idea that at some point in Matt's journey, his emotional journey, and again, I don't know how everything is happening, or what might happen, and how it ties into what we've already done, I have no idea at all. But I've always liked the idea that at some point he feels like he has earned the right to have the DD [on his chest], which we've never had."
"And one day down the line, I like the idea that he just makes that decision; we get to witness that evolution on screen. That's just a little idea that I've had that I thought would be quite cool."
When Matt Murdock inevitably suits up as Daredevil again, we'd hope the "DD" is there front and centre (there's no need to explain its presence). Rumour has it that 'ol Hornhead will be donning his original yellow suit in the MCU when he supposedly shows up in She-Hulk later this year.
Hopefully, Daredevil has a bright future in the MCU as he deserves the chance to make an impact.
