Daredevil Charlie Cox is Matt Murdock/Daredevil

[Gamma Goliath]

Can't wait to see the new costume

Has Charlie Cox ever done an american accent in a role before? I know he put on a convincing irish accent in Boardwalk Empire which is a good sign, but looking through YouTube at all these clips of him, I've never seen him do an american one.

 

[Mike Murdock]

I would imagine that any audition had him try. I don't want another McNulty, but I doubt they're on day one filming on set and they tell him to try an American accent for the first time.

Oh I know the process. He probably had a vocal coach long before he got the part. I just want to know if theres any movie out there that he has used an american accent in before or if this is his first time.

How hard is it to do an American accent though really? You just talk like you normally do except always yelling.

Haha, no I'm just kidding I love our american cousins or as they're known here 'Canada's mexico'

'Canada's mexico'

I'm canadian and even I struggle doing a fake american accent. Must be difficult to a brit.

 

[Silvermoth]

Haha I was trolling a bit to be honest but we're all having fun so it's ok just this once

We find it pretty easy as we are used to hearing it all the time from American pop culture.

You must be that guy at the beach that gets sand kicked in his face.
I've know guys that put 40lbs of lean mass in less than 4 months without anything more than a lot of good food and a lot of hard work.

An Cox is a professional actor who has nothing else to do with his time but prep for the role and has the money for a nutriotionist and personal trainer. Just because you can't change yourself in a year doesn't mean others can't.

I've been working as a personal trainer since 2007 and fighting professionally in MMA, which involves a lot of weight manipulation (I've fought everywhere from 155lb-205lb), and I can tell you right now that without the aid of a large cycle of steroids, 40lbs of lean mass in 4 months isn't going to happen. It just isn't physiologically possible. Even with large regimens of an anabolic agent and testosterone, simply taking in the required calories to gain that kind of mass in general, let alone lean mass, would be remarkably difficult.

Thank you, so much BS spouted around about people gaining x amount of muscle naturally. 10lbs of lean muscle in a year is a struggle for natural bodybuilders. 40lbs in 4 months is beyond ludicrous.

Anyway if Daredevil was a real person and not a comic representation of an ideal man, then he would be relatively lean anyway. After all he does a lot of running, it's like Batman in reality he would have a lean strong physique and not a bodybuilders physique

Aaaaaah, so are we returning to that grand Hype tradition of creepy "if he cares about the role he'll take steroids to look the part" posts coming out the woodwork?

More returning to people thinking it is normal and natural for someone to be able to go from normal to bodybuilder physique in months, and that all superheroes should look like bodybuilders

 

[marcvader]

I still say Ben Ryan would've made a hella Captain America.

Matt Murdock and Bruce Wayne should effectively have the build of gymnasts. Honestly my only complaint about Affleck as Daredevil, had been that he doesn't look like a gymnast.

I stand corrected.
Still I know a guy that put on 40lbs in 2 months without roids, he's 6'7 and didn't look like he gained any fat.

Admittedly someone who's that big would have an easier time doing it. The reverse is true as well in that the smaller you are, the more difficult it is. I was thinking more in terms of someone with an average build. At that size it'd still be difficult but certainly more plausible with the right hypertrophy program and being very very liberal with caloric intake

Theres a lot of subtle differences between canadian and american accents. For example, the word "sorry" is pronounced "sorey" by canadians and "sahrrey" by americans, at least from what I've seen

 

[marcvader]

Sahrrey?

 

[Mike Murdock]

That's a plausible spelling of how I'd pronounce it. I'd go more "Sarry," but it's the same thing.

 

[Six]

I only put the H in there so it couldn't be read as an "air" instead of of an "ahr" sound.

 

[marcvader]

Sarry would be like harry. Sahrry is more like it.

 

[SlamAdams]

More like Sawry I think in US

Are they not aware that Matt Murdock was never that muscular.
