Is Charlie Cox Playing Matt Murdock In MCU's Daredevil Show?

Following reports that Marvel Studios is moving forward with a new Daredevil series, a big question is whether or not Charlie Cox will be returning to the role of Matt Murdock. While it remains to be seen if the new series will be a full reboot of the Man Without Fear's story or a continuation of the original Netflix series, recent MCU projects and comments have increased the likelihood of Cox's return.

Likewise, a return is also ed by recent comments made by Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige about Cox as the MCU's Daredevil.

Disney can only win by keeping Charlie Cox in the role of Matt Murdock. Even if Marvel Studios decides to retcon or reboot Daredevil's story rather than continuing what was seen in the three seasons produced by Netflix, recasting would be ill-advised given the strong Charlie Cox has received from audiences while playing the Man Without Fear. Regardless of the form the new Disney+ Daredevil series might take, Cox's portrayal was iconic in the same vein as Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man or Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. It would be very hard to find an actor who could bring Matt Murdock to life as well as Cox has.

Again, Cox's return has yet to be officially confirmed, though it would be extremely surprising if Marvel Studios were to recast Matt Murdock with another actor. Whether the new Daredevil series is a reboot, a fourth season, or something in between, the probability is high that Charlie Cox will be donning the red suit once more in the MCU.
