Since 2015, Daredevil has dominated the small screen across his two shows on Netflix and Disney+. Fans have kept the character going on TV for the past decade, and actor Charlie Cox thinks that same passion could get ol’ hornhead back on the big screen.
In a recent interview at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation, Cox said he was the “worst person to ask” about the chances of a Daredevil movie, since he knows jack all about it. Any questions or demands should go to “the grown-ups,” aka Disney and Marvel. “Write letters, just everyone write letters,” he urged. For him, the show’s not too far removed from the cinematic experience, since the cast and crew got to watch the first two episodes of every season in theaters, something he thinks it absolutely “deserves” for everyone, not just the people who made it.
Now, Cox could probably be lying his ass off, a thing he’s pretty good at doing when it comes to playing this character. If there were any time to bring him to the movies, fans think it’d be now: Deadpool & Wolverine reintroduced audiences to Jennifer Garner’s Elektra (from the 2003 Daredevil and her own solo movie), and the recently delayed Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars are looking to bring the old X-Men back for one last hurrah. And if not there, there’s always Spider-Man: Cox has already reprised the role for the animated Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, and Spider-Man: Brand New Day in 2026.
Wherever Daredevil shows up next outside of his own show returning in 2026, Cox is happy to tell Matt’s story and remains “so thrilled to be here.” And if this is any indication, fans are ready to follow him anywhere.
