Daredevil: Born Again star Charlie Cox responds to the news of Robert Downey Jr. coming back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Doctor Doom. One of the biggest reveals to come out of San Diego Comic-Con 2024 was the surprise that Downey Jr. is making his way back to the MCU timeline. Robert Downey Jr. is set to appear in Avengers: Doomsday, with this movie currently looking to be the actor’s first appearance in the franchise since his departure from the MCU in 2019 after Tony Stark’s death in Avengers: Endgame.

In a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, the announcement of Downey Jr. being tapped to play Doctor Doom in the MCU was brought up, as the host asked if Charlie Cox hoped to cross paths with the actor in a future Marvel Studios project. Cox made it very clear that while he doesn’t know if that is in store for him, Downey Jr. is someone he would love to share the screen with in the MCU, sharing the following:

Playing this character, I always hope my path will cross with all sorts of characters in the MCU and certainly he would be very high up on that list! God knows if that’s something that would/could ever happen. Certainly, now anything feels like now anything can happen, and I hope that it does!

Will Charlie Cox’s Daredevil Be Part Of Avengers: Doomsday & Secret Wars?

Charlie Cox is set to make his comeback in the MCU in March 2025 when the Daredevil: Born Again TV show premieres on Disney+, making him the first character in the franchise to get a second series. However, his journey after Daredevil: Born Again is unclear, as Marvel Studios hasn’t revealed what is next for Matt Murdock. Naturally, this raises the question of whether Daredevil could show up in Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.

With Phase 6 set to bring an end to The Multiverse Saga, the next Avengers movies are bound to bring back as many characters as possible for the war against Doctor Doom. Given how Marvel Studios is making Daredevil one of the bigger players in the franchise, it would only make sense for the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen to be part of Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. Having Matt in Avengers: Doomsday would also finally allow Daredevil to start connecting with the Avengers.

Since Avengers: Secret Wars has been rumored to set up a soft reboot for the MCU, Phase 6 may be the final time that Daredevil can engage with this iteration of the franchise. If Marvel Studios is set to reimagine the MCU for Phase 7 and beyond, it would be a shame to not see Daredevil in Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. Hopefully, after Daredevil: Born Again, Marvel Studios will make it clear where Matt is going next in the MCU.
