Last night while attending the
premiere of his new film The Theory of Everything, actor Charlie Cox, who is
set to play the Man Without Fear in Marvel's upcoming Netflix show, revealed
that he wasn't quite prepared for all the passionate fans attending this past NYCC.
The actor also spoke a little bit about his preparation process to play
Daredevil, and teases that he has never seen anything like this from Marvel
before.
"I've read comics after
comics after comics — I've never read so many comics in my life, and we're
finding moments from the comics to reference in the show. We're trying to make
a show that's new and much, much darker than anything I've ever seen Marvel do
before."
Cox elaborates on what will
make this new take on the character "much, much darker".
"He's going out and he's taking
the law into his own hands, and he doesn't know if he can stop. He might be
addicted to it."
"Marvel's Daredevil" follows the journey of
Matt Murdock, who was blinded as a young boy but imbued with extraordinary
senses, now fighting against injustice by day as a lawyer, and by night as the
super hero Daredevil in modern day Hell's Kitchen, New York City.
