Charlie Cox’s Return as Matt Murdock in *Daredevil: Born Again*
Fans can rejoice as Charlie Cox reprises his role as the daredevil lawyer Matt Murdock in the much-anticipated series *Daredevil: Born Again*, set to premiere on Disney+ on March 4. The actor recently shared insights into the show’s gripping beginning, which he admits may be more intense than viewers might expect.
A Dramatic Opening for Matt Murdock
In a candid conversation with Vincent D’Onofrio, who returns as the formidable Wilson Fisk, Cox revealed that the series kicks off with a “very traumatic event.” This pivotal moment is described as a transformative incident that profoundly alters Matt Murdock’s life. Cox stated, “He’ll probably never be the same again, ” while also hinting at the emotional weight this gut-wrenching scene carries for the rest of the series.
Questions Surrounding the Choice
Despite acknowledging the show’s need to make a bold statement after a long hiatus, Cox expressed uncertainty about whether this traumatic beginning is the right direction for the narrative. The fallout from this event pushes Murdock to the brink, forcing him to reconsider his life as a vigilante while grappling with issues of atonement and self-forgiveness.“I’m still not convinced it’s the right thing to do, ” he noted.
Speculations from Fans
The potential implications of this trauma have sparked significant discussion among fans, particularly regarding the fate of Franklin “Foggy” Nelson. Many are speculating that Foggy may not survive this brutal introduction to the series, which could weigh heavily on Matt’s conscience if he were to play an indirect role in his best friend’s demise. While many viewers are resistant to the idea of Foggy’s death, it’s undeniable that such a dramatic twist could substantially elevate the stakes of the story. Early reviews appear to suggest that *Daredevil: Born Again* may even surpass the acclaim of its Netflix predecessor.
A Shared Vision for the Series’ Future
Both Cox and D’Onofrio feel optimistic about the show’s return, despite not being entirely united on the debut’s shocking narrative choice. D’Onofrio reflected on the value of their previous success, stating, “I don’t think we could have done a better show than what we had. It was amazing.” He emphasized the continued fan demand for the series, noting that *Daredevil* consistently ranked as one of Netflix’s top shows. With confidence in the storytelling team behind the Marvel Cinematic Universe, D’Onofrio asserts, “I figured it’s a no-brainer—why wouldn’t they have us back?”
As anticipation builds for *Daredevil: Born Again*, fans are left to ponder the implications of a potentially devastating opening scene and what it means for Matt Murdock’s journey.
