Charlie Cox Is Pumped To Put A New Spin On Matt Murdock In Daredevil: Born Again

By Mia Tucker

Charlie Cox recently sat down for an interview with NME, and naturally his upcoming series "Daredevil: Born Again" came up in the conversation. But he has bad news for any fans hoping to see a direct continuation of the dark and sometimes violent adventures they're accustomed to from the older "Daredevil" show. "This has to be a reincarnation, it has to be different, otherwise why are we doing it?" he asks.

Matt Murdock's appearance on "She-Hulk: Attorney at Law" might give fans a clue as to the lighter tone of the upcoming series, but Cox also grants that the character does have a mature streak that shouldn't be ignored. "My opinion is this character works best when he's geared towards a slightly more mature audience," the actor explained. "My instinct is that on Disney+ it will be dark but it probably won't be as gory."

Of course, that's just Cox's own take on the material, and we won't know for sure what to expect from the new show until it hits our screens sometime in 2024. Cox says the show hasn't even started filming yet, and that when it does it will take a bit longer than usual for a pretty intriguing reason.
