DAREDEVIL Actor Charlie Cox Says He Hasn't Watched SHE-HULK Yet, Despite Having a Role in It

Daredevil star Charlie Cox is making the leap from Netflix to Disney+ with his upcoming series Daredevil: Born Again. But it won’t be his first official induction into the MCU, as Cox’s character Matt Murdock/Daredevil has appeared in Spiderman: No Way Home and the series She-Hulk: Attorney at Law.

So we have an idea of what’s going on with Murdock, but it turns out that Charlie Cox himself hasn’t even seen his scenes in the She-Hulk series. Cox recently appeared alongside his co-star Vincent D'Onofrio at ICCCon in Nashville, and they took part in a panel hosted by Phase Zero's Brandon Davis (via CB). During the event, Cox talked about reprising his role, saying:

"And so when She-Hulk came along and I read those scripts, I felt like this is a really good opportunity to try my hand at that tone with this character and see if I can remain true to the character but also find a side of him that is represented in the comics that would be appropriate for that show. Because the problem is if you take the Daredevil that we know from the other series and you put him in She-Hulk, I think he becomes the butt of the joke. He's the serious one and everyone – so, I didn't want that. I don't think he's that. So I wanted him to match Jennifer Walters a little bit and that experiment for me was really fun."

He went on:

"And I think people responded to that. I actually also haven't seen that episode. I've seen the bits from when we do the ADR [automated dialog replacement], which is the voiceover stuff and it seems fun, you know what I mean? But it was a really cool experiment to see if you could take that character and without losing anything – losing what people love about that character, what I love about that character – and still see him in different places. It's also true to life. There are times in your life when you find it very difficult to find a sense of humor because you're struggling or because life is hard, and there's times when life's running smoothly and it's sunglasses and roses."

I mean, I guess he was there when he made the scenes, so he doesn’t really need to watch them. But with the precise continuity of the MCU, it would probably be a good idea for him to brush up moving forward. I’m looking forward to Daredevil: Born Again, which is set to hit Disney+ next year, but it is one of the series that is affected by the writers’ strike. We’ll keep you posted regarding changes moving forward.
