Key Points
Kevin Feige strategically reintroduced Daredevil through MCU cameos
Marvel deliberately seeded Matt Murdock character across multiple shows
New series debuts March 5, 2025 on JioHotstar
Cox's enthusiasm high for returning to fan-favorite role
Recalling how a phone call kicked off his journey back to the fan-favourite character, Charlie in a press note said: "When everything was shut down during the pandemic, I got a call from [Marvel president] Kevin Feige who pitched me the idea of coming back for cameos in both 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' and 'She-Hulk'. Then he said there will be something after, but they didn't know what that might be. I was speechless and absolutely over the moon. I think he said something like 'you know, I just wanted to gauge your interest,' and my answer was a resounding 'it's high, my interest is very high!'"
Fans have watched Matt Murdock and Daredevil flirt with the MCU for years, starting with a cameo appearance in "Spider-Man: No Way Home."
"Consciously or unconsciously, we have been seeding Matt Murdock and the Daredevil character in many shows before we started thinking about his own revival series," explained executive producer and head of Marvel Television Brad Winderbaum.
The series will be out on March 5, 2025, in Hindi, English, Tamil, and Telugu on JioHotstar in India.
