MCU: 7 Perfect Marvel Characters Daniel Radcliffe Should Play

3. Ben Urich

We’ve seen firsthand just how vital investigative reporter Ben Ulrich has been in Marvel’s Daredevil on Netflix (we’re only slightly forgetting the 2003 version in the Daredevil film).

Even though the hit-series has been set in the MCU, that contained universe has since been canned. As such, it is now time to reboot him, and Radcliffe could give the character the same esteem.

Whether he is taking on the Kingpin or another staple of Marvel Comics in a future film, a new version of Ben Urich can still be as tough-as-nails as ever.

Radcliffe can potentially try to emulate cues from Mark Ruffalo’s Robert Bilott character from Dark Waters, as a person who will stop short of nothing to find the truth. Given today’s climate for journalism in general, Radcliffe can certainly do the role justice in a nuanced world full of super beings.
