Charlie Cox’s Daredevil will soon appear in his first solo series under the MCU umbrella. Last seen in the She-Hulk series, it can’t be denied that many fans are not very happy with the stark transition faced by the character. Once again a new statement by Cox made the Internet flooded by reactions from fans worldwide who looked quite disappointed and skeptical about the future of Daredevil. The 39-year-old actor teased that Daredevil can have an appearance in Deadpool 3.
After being seen for the first time in Spider-Man: No Way Home, we got to watch more about Matt Murdock in the Disney+ She-Hulk series. While the show itself suffered from many flaws that caused intense criticism, the inclusion of Charlie Cox in the series didn’t help much. It divided the Internet further with a wide section of fans complaining about the traditional gritty tone missing completely.
Daredevil can join hands with Deadpool and Wolverine
Since Daredevil: Born Again was announced, there has been active skepticism about the tonality of the show. Several of the fans don’t think that the MCU will allow the gritty and violent nature of the show that was followed by the Netflix version of the show. Although industry insider Daniel Richtman said that the show will likely have a TV-MA rating which is equivalent to an R Rating in the movies, the worries don’t decrease.
Recently speaking at the German Comic-Con, Charlie Cox teased that the blind vigilante from Hell’s Kitchen can have a place in Deadpool 3. According to him, the 18-episode-long Daredevil: Born Again and the Ryan Reynolds movie shares a similar tone:
“Because of the tone of our show, I think there’s a place for Daredevil to show up in Deadpool. Would be really cool.”
The news raised quite a buzz on the Internet. Even though many are up with the optimism that the show will have a violent nature like the R Rated Deadpool 3, most of them believe that the character doesn’t fit the narrative of the movie which is also popular for its humor along with the violence. On the other hand, it also points to the fact that the series will go through a significant tonal transition which many fans were afraid of.
The fans are extremely unhappy
As the third installment of Deadpool is all set to bring back Ryan Reynolds in his Wade Wilson version, the movie also presented us with a surprise with Hugh Jackman‘s return as Wolverine. But the fans don’t seem too happy after listening to Charlie Cox’s statement about his character. Here are a few reactions:
Was the butchering of Daredevil in SheHulk not enough?

Yea they wasted no time with Daredevil huh? Such a shame man. Nothing will ever top the Netflix version. Which was perfectly balanced with a since of starkness, dry humor, drama and mystery. But woohoo Disney saved Daredevil 😖 pic.twitter.com/Etfe14sQKL

Now due to a notable time left for both projects to release, there isn’t much information out there about either of them. While Daredevil: Born Again will feature a grounded storyline with Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin also returning to the game, Deadpool 3 is slated to feature a multiversal plot. As per a recent tweet from Miss Minute’s official Twitter account, the TVA’s involvement with the Shawn Levy directorial is also confirmed. Now it will be exciting to see if we can also spot Charlie Cox in the movie or if it is nothing more than his desire that the MCU might plan to fulfill later on.
Daredevil: Born Again is slated for a Spring 2024 release on Disney+ while Deadpool 3 is set to hit the theaters on November 8, 2024.
