Charlie Cox might continue his run as Daredevil in the MCU Universe

Marvel abruptly cancelled Daredevil in late 2018. Before its cancellation, actor Charlie Cox played the lead Matt Murdock for three seasons. Last summer, Marvel announced a series of new lineups to stream on Disney+ Hotstar but left Daredevil out of the list. Post the Daredevil x Spiderman 3 rumours, the latest reports suggest that Marvel might bring Charlie Cox back in his Daredevil character. 

Charlie Cox to return to MCU as Daredevil?

Marvel is reportedly considering to make Charlie Cox's return as Matt Murdock to MCU's Daredevil. These reports come amid the rumours of the media franchise considering signing up Jon Bernthal and Krysten Ritter in their roles as the Punisher and Jessica Jones for a future project. In an earlier interview, Cox confessed to being shocked by the show's cancellation and said that he refused new projects because he thought he would continue for two more seasons.

Reports also suggest that MCU is planning to bring Samuel L Jackson's Nick Fury on board as well. 

The studio has neither confirmed nor denied any of these reports yet. The American media franchise is currently facing a lot of delay amid the pandemic in producing their Phase 4 content. The introduction of Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool into the MCU is also on the charts already.
