After years of endless speculation, CinemaBlend has exclusively learned that Charlie Cox will indeed reprise his fan-favorite role as Matt Murdock/Daredevil in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
During an interview with Kevin Feige himself, the Marvel Studios President assertively confirmed, "If you were to see Daredevil in upcoming things, Charlie Cox, yes, would be the actor playing Daredevil. Where we see that, how we see that, when we see that, remains to be seen."
It's a rare move from Feige, who is famously known for holding all of his cards under his trademark hats. The timing is also curious, since this bombshell reveal comes just ten days ahead of the theatrical launch of Spider-Man: No Way Home, a movie Cox has heavily been rumored to appear in for months.
His cavalier reveal arrives just days after newcomer Alaqua Cox made her debut as Maya Lopez/Echo and in the midst of a news cycle that has been absolutely buzzing about co-star Vincent D'Onofrio's potential return as the Kingpin in Hawkeye.
Feige didn't say when we could potentially see the Man Without Fear (MCU variant) return to action, but if he is introduced as Matt Murdock in Spider-Man: No Way Home, then it seems probable that he could have a significant role to play in the upcoming Echo, She-Hulk, or Moon Knight Disney+ shows or any street-level project. A recent report also suggested that Marvel Studios had already begun actively developing a solo Daredevil project.
Whatever the end result may be, this is a massive development for the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and opens the world to a whole new plethora of stories. Time to celebrate, because The Devil of Hell's Kitchen is back!
