Daredevil Charlie Cox is Matt Murdock/Daredevil

[gohei_]

I think that Black Widow would fit in a lot better in DD's world than the other way around. I fear he would look out of place in the movies, but the plus side would of course be that we would get to see the true potential of his grappling hook and cable.
It would be cool if they ever share screentime though, because I really liked those issues where they were together.

Eh, it would come off as Natasha slumming. Why would she particularly focus on street crime in one neighborhood of one city, and how would this not be bringing an elephant gun to a fist fight, if she did?

if she was after the hand like in the books cause they are becoming force rivaling hydra in the world of crime it be a good enough reason . after all it's not like this doesn't happen often in the books enough as shown with marvel heroes the game and the animated series. etc

[metaphysician]

Yeah, but if she's showing up because the Avengers have realized the Hand exist and are a major threat, she's not going to be showing up alone. At that point your dealing with "The Hand get stomped on by the Avengers", and Daredevil gets to be even *more* irrelevant.

she would if she need's evidence and is just looking into it. that's also been shown inthge animated series of avengers assemble too. it depends on how they want to push it. any the hand has messed with all the heroes with the exception of a few the new wrrioriorshave fought the X-men Etc. this thing with iron fist is new cause in the books kung lun had no dealing with them . it happen later wih collen but befor that. the avengers can show up way later. like their own movie

I'm thinking she could be in Hells Kitchen for personal reasons? It doesn't need to be about regular street crime or any big avengers-type stuff.

 

[zenith16]

With Black widow, it's always about that. it's rarely that she was just there just buying a new purse or dress that she just had to have and it happen to be in that part of newy york . That's more Janet/ wasp then her.

Even if she's only there for some random personal reasons, doesn't change that she's a giant shark visiting a tiny pond. If there's nothing unusual going on, that pretty much means its Overshadow The Local Hero Day. Which, if you *really* want to do a "Matt Murdoch has self-doubts from hanging out with an Avenger" sure. I just don't think there's any *point* to doing so, other than indulging a "but they were love interests in the comics" sensibility that has no meaningful justification in the MCU.

Eh, I'm no writer, but if Marvel wants to do it I'm sure they can make it so that it doesn't feel out of place. I just enjoyed those story arcs they had together so that's why I think it would be fun to see.
I doubt it's something that's even on their list though.

 

[TheVileOne]

I doubt they could afford Scarlett Johansson to do a multi-episode arc.

 

[hafizbat]

While the MCU is dynamite with its ability to pair characters, I don't think DD works well for it. Cap and Widow in TWS was great. Spidey and Iron Man in Homecoming was great. Thor and Hulk are gonna be awesome in Ragnarok.

But DD operates best in his own world. Its just too different to bring in an Avenger without feeling forced. The only reason would be fan service. I'm not a fan of the DD/Spidey pairing either that so many are pining for. They just don't mesh well either thematically or in their abilities.

 

[Avenging Angel]

I think Black Widow would work if they were getting really desperate. They should stick to DD-original characters. Their world makes more sense than combining them, even if Marvel is still connecting everything together.

 

[metaphysician]

*cough* Just to repeat something that shouldn't need repeating: Just because multiple characters exist in the same world, doesn't mean they have to meet. A world is big, and if everyone is constantly crossing paths, that makes it smaller.

Or, the alternative to "DD in the Avengers" is not "DD as his own separate universe". The alternative is "DD lives in the same world as the Avengers, he just has nothing to do with them."

"Like Evans’ Steve Rogers, Cox’s Murdock is more subtle than showy. He stands firm in his convictions, convictions that involve way more self-sacrifice than Cap’s–and that’s saying a lot considering Cap drove a jet into the arctic to stop Nazis! But Cox doesn’t get enough credit for bringing so much intense, quiet humanity to a man who goes about doing the right thing in the way guaranteed to screw himself up while saving everyone around him. But Matt Murdock isn’t lost in darkness, even if he’s the most intense Marvel hero not wearing a skull on his chest."

Marvel's Daredevil Season 3: 10 Spoiler Free Reactions To First Six Episodes

"Once again, though, Cox is able to finds new depths to this character and continue pushing his performance to new heights. The little tics and nuances he affects in order to convincingly play a blind man remain remarkable, and he adds new layers to them this year, including pretending he's genuinely blind without his special senses, but also going the other way and having to act as though he can see.

On top of that he's required to show a great emotional range, from the sheer pain he feels and being ready to completely leave Matt Murdock behind, to the simmering anger that's always ready to boil over, and despite that he still manages to be charismatic too. He has to take Matt to new lows this season, going deeper and darker than ever before, but Cox's turn just goes to greater heights."

Hi there,

Long time lurker who finally made an account. Since no one has posted in this thread in over a whole year, I figured it was time to bring it back to life again... with all the reviews for the Season 3 first 6 eps coming out. And also because... Charlie Cox deserves all the love and praise he gets and more.

'Daredevil' Season 3 Review: A Great Series Gets Even Better | Digital Trends

"Earlier seasons provided the back story of how he gained his extrasensory abilities, formidable martial arts skills, and even his “Daredevil” nickname, but the third season offers the deepest dive so far into the psychology of someone who would do what Murdock does, and the personal history that might lead someone on that path. Cox handles this fresh direction for the character with all of the skill he’s shown in previous seasons, and masterfully walks the line between annoying, woe-is-me angst and the genuine, internalized anguish that can shape a person’s worldview in dark ways."

 

[Deck Rickard]

Awesome. This show wouldn't work if the lead didn't deliver a powerhouse performance, and Cox has been outstanding. This sounds like it will be his best arc to date.

Agreed. If the titular character wasn't done justice then nothing else could work. Charlie Cox does a superb job of giving us a layered, very subtle and natural performance. He brings so much to the role, so many little details done perfectly, that I sometimes feel people don't even realize all the things he does. But maybe that's good? He's not flashy. He's more nuanced, and understated.

TV Review: Marvel's Daredevil - Season 3

"After losing Elektra in The Defenders, Matt is shattered, physical and mentally, and borders on having a death wish. Instead, he pours every ounce of motivation he has back into stopping Wilson Fisk and, eventually, Bullseye. But, because of what he now carries in himself, Matt's faith is tested and his actions become all the more brutal. The edge this brings to Cox's performance has the most energy ever seen in the character and brings it closest to anything we have seen from the comics."

Charlie Cox deserves an Emmy for his work on Season 3! Incredible work!

Doesn’t seem likely, though.

A look inside the episode 4 Prison breakout sequence, where according to the Director Charlie Cox did 80% of the fight sequence hjmself.

“At take six or seven, Charlie was ****ing exhausted, and understandably so,” he recalls. “And when he gets pushed against the wall and he collapses and spits blood, he told me that he could barely breathe at that point. I would say a lot of people did a lot of work, but yeah, Charlie was the MVP, without a doubt.”
