Now that Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock is officially in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the actor discussed what it would take to get a Daredevil show on Disney+.

While the original Daredevil was considerably darker than anything that's come from Marvel Studios so far, Cox thinks it's possible for the Man Without Fear to live in the MCU. "I wouldn't put it past the folks at Marvel to be able to accomplish that," Cox said of adapting the tone of Daredevil to the current MCU. "I'm such a fan of everything they've done so far, I wouldn't underestimate them at all. So if they wanted to make a more PG version of Daredevil, I back them to find a way to do it where it feels totally in keeping with everything we've done. And maybe there's a little less blood, maybe there's a little whatever, but I back them to do it."

With DaredevilJessica Jones, and the other Marvel/Netflix shows vacating their original streaming home and joining the House of Mouse, Disney+ has added new parental controls for the mature series. The move means the Disney streamer is no longer only for family-friendly content. That said, the MCU has always skewed towards that demographic, though the brutality of Moon Knight could open the door for new things. Regardless, Cox thinks a new Daredevil show could work even if it was toned down some.

"My feeling is that the comics work best, the Daredevil comics, for me, are more exciting, readable, relatable when it lives in a darker space," Cox said. "Having said that -- and obviously I'm thinking like Bendis/Maleev is probably the best example of that -- having said that, and this was actually when this news... I was texting with some of the guys from the show and the text I wrote was, 'Born Again.' But having said that, Born Again is kind of a PG comic, it's not in the same world as the Bendis and Maleev stuff. It's not that dark, and it's one of the greats."

While Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev's run on Daredevil in 1998 is considerably darker than the MCU's content, making it akin to the Netflix series, Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli's Born Again could provide a template for a slightly more toned-down version of Daredevil's world. But even if things brighten a bit, Cox admitted Matt Murdock will always need some darkness in his stories.

"It absolutely can work, but I guess what you can't deny is Daredevil is never going to work as well in a PG world as Spider-Man does," Cox concluded. "Do you know what I mean? That's the point. I think that the age of the character, the Christian guilt, his history with women and stuff... it's a little bit more mature, it has to be."

All three seasons of Daredevil, along with the rest of the Marvel/Netflix shows, arrive March 16 on Disney+.
