10 Things Disney+ NEEDS To Do With The Marvel Netflix Characters
5. Get Charlie Cox Back For Matt Murdock
As great as Mike Colter, Krysten Ritter, and Finn Jones (who was good casting just not directed that great) were in their respective roles, if you re-casted their characters with different actors, it would still be fine. But there are two actors who were put on this Earth to play the roles that they did in the Netflix Marvel shows, and one of them is Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock.
Charlie Cox disappears so thoroughly into his role that you would never even guess that he's actually British if this is your first introduction to him as an actor. And of course, Cox just nails every single aspect of the character, from the tortured Catholic racked with guilt over his actions, to the determined lawyer trying to squeeze a drop of justice from a system he KNOWS is corrupt, to even the glib, devil-may-care snark showcased in the legendary Mark Waid run.
His performance was so good I honestly can't think of anyone who could do it better. So if Daredevil appears on a Disney+ live action show in the future, probably best to just stick to what we know works.
