He expressed his gratitude towards all those who were determined to reinstate his character in the MCU in a more permanent way and was pleased to find out just how many people believed in him. And he certainly didn’t hesitate to accept that had it not been for the audience, he might not even have made it back as Daredevil.

Charlie Cox hadn’t expected Daredevil: Born Again to happen

A while ago, Charlie Cox had been interviewed at the D23 Expo, about his thoughts and feelings on finally becoming an official part of the MCU, now that his very own series was in the works. And the English actor revealed a rather sentimental side behind his perspective. “Man, it’s so…you know, emotional. I’m finding it really emotional,” Cox said.

But you know how sometimes, certain moments in life feel surreal? Well, that was exactly how The Defenders star felt about his situation with Daredevil. “It feels too good to be true,” he remarked.
