TheMarvelCinematic Universe is about get kicked into high gear withPhase Three, which starts withCaptain America: Civil War, debuting on May 6. This massive phase will culminate withAvengers: Infinity War Part IandAvengers: Infinity War - Part II, which is believed to unite the entireMarvel Cinematic Universe. Many have wondered if this means that the studio’s Netflix TV shows such asMarvel’s Daredevilwill be crossing over to the movie side forAvengers: Infinity War Part IandAvengers: Infinity War - Part II, but that may not be the case. While doing press withET Online,Marvel’s DaredevilstarCharlie Coxrevealed that he thinks the studio may actually re-cast the Man Without Fear.
“I have not received that call! Could you imagine? That would be the coolest thing ever. I have no idea how… Marvel TV and Marvel Studios are two very different things. So even if the character were to appear in that film, that doesn’t necessarily mean that I would appear in that film. I will pick a fight with the guy that they choose! That would be a dream. But that is not something that has been discussed with me at this point.”
Long beforeDaredevildebuted onNetflix, it was confirmed that this series, along withMarvel’s Jessica Jones,Marvel’s Luke CageandMarvel’s Iron Fist, will be part of the MCU. While none of these TV stars have crossed over onto the big screen yet, they are set in the same universe, so it could be possible. However, there could be one detail that could get in the way ofCharlie CoxjoiningAvengers: Infinity War Part IandAvengers: Infinity War - Part II.
Last year,Marvel StudiospresidentKevin Feigerestructured his deal with Disney so he wouldn’t have to answer to Marvel Entertainment CEOIke Perlmutter, which meant that the movie side of the MCU is is essentially under Disney’s control. However,Ike Perlmutterstill oversees the Marvel TV division, which could be a reason why a character like Daredevil, who falls underIke Perlmutter’s purview, may be re-cast. Of course, the Man Without Fear hasn’t even been confirmed to joinAvengers: Infinity War Part IandAvengers: Infinity War - Part IIyet.
Avengers: Infinity War Part IandAvengers: Infinity War - Part IIdirectorsAnthony RussoandJoe Russorecently teased that there will be a whopping67 charactersin the two-part adventure, but they later clarified that was not an exact number. Still, it wouldn’t be surprising for the actual character count to be somewhere in that ballpark, so maybe the Man Without Fear could be joining the fight against Thanos after all. What do you think about the possibility of Daredevil being recast forAvengers: Infinity War Part IandAvengers: Infinity War - Part II?
