It has to feel like it could and will explode.
The more you bring us together with no consequence, the less that illusion can maintain itself.
These stakes were important to Cox, who stood his ground during the development phase.
After Charlie Cox’s cameo appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home and supporting role in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Daredevil: Born Again gives Matt Murdock his first show set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Daredevil: Born Again continues the story that started in Netflix’s three-season Daredevil series and sees Wilson Fisk ascend to mayor of New York City.
TheBoardwalk Empireactor was not afraid to make his opinion known for the follow-up series.
Even those not heavily versed in the comics know thatthe Kingpin is a monumental figure in Marvel canon.
It is no secret that the two will meet up when the series rolls around.
The question is, how to keep the tension with these iconic actors.
Cox had his own suggestions when it came time to get the series into gear.
So they found a really cool way to not have us do that.
Fans can watchDaredevil: Born Againwhen it premiereson Disney+ on March 4, 2025.
