As Daredevil has been rumored to be appearing in Avengers: Doomsday is reportedly filming in March. Given the nature of superhero films, there have been numerous rumors about who will be showing up in Avengers: Doomsday.

In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, Charlie Cox was asked about a December 2024 rumor that was floating around that Daredevil would be appearing in Avengers: Doomsday that emerged after he visited the DFRNT Health and Fitness in West Australia, which led to a social media post that said he was getting ready to reprise the role in the 2026 installment. Cox went into depth about what had happened, while clarifying what he had actually said about his Daredevil role and its future, as he shared the following:

I was there for Christmas with my family. And on the last day, they asked if they could take a picture with me, which we did. I had said to them, 'I'm getting ready to play Daredevil,' 'cause I am! I'm getting ready to play Daredevil in season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again. Sometimes people who aren't really in the [entertainment] world, they don't understand the terminology or whatever, but for some reason they posted that and they put 'getting ready for his role in the Avengers,' which is not true. I felt terrible. I had to call my bosses and say, 'I didn't say that,' obviously. Why would I say that? Why would I make something like that up? But I don't think they made it up. I think they just got confused about what it is. I don't know.

What Charlie Cox's Daredevil Comments Mean

To expand upon what Cox had to debunk, when he took a picture with the the Avengers: Doomsday cast.

While it was most likely a big misunderstanding on the owners' part, it's understandable why Cox had to clarify that this wasn't true, as many MCU fans ran with Daredevil being in Avengers: Doomsday as fact. Up to this point, Marvel Studios has been keeping Avengers: Doomsday story details and cast updates under wraps, given the magnitude of this film. Once filming for Avengers: Doomsday starts, that is when the world will start to learn more about what characters from the MCU timeline will be included in the movie.

Our Take On Charlie Cox's Daredevil Comments

While Cox was able to clear up this specific instance about the Phase 6 film, it's key to that he never said that he isn't in Avengers: Doomsday at all, as he simply clarified that his workout was for Daredevil: Born Again season 2. It wouldn't be shocking if Daredevil ends up being in Avengers: Doomsday, and that this is an announcement that is being saved for later. Hopefully, whether it is in Avengers: Doomsday or Avengers: Secret Wars, Cox's Daredevil will finally get a chance to meet the other MCU heroes.
