At GalaxyCon New Orleans 2025 the talk drifted toward Daredevil: Born Again and where Marvel’s teams might be heading, and in the middle of it someone asked about Matt Murdock and the New Avengers, not as breaking news or anything official, just a fan throwing the question out, and Charlie Cox laughed before giving his reply, what came after was not a promise and not a Marvel hint either, more like his own take on how Daredevil could react if the offer ever came.
He explained that Matt is not someone who looks for groups. That kind of hero tends to keep a distance, to walk alone. Cox compared him to Frank Castle, another figure who avoids team-ups. Then he separated himself from the role, making clear how different the actor and the character can be.
His words were direct:
"That’s so funny. That’s a really good question. I think Matt Murdock would kind of think about it. He’s a lone wolf; he likes to work by himself. He’s a reluctant kind of team-up guy I think. A bit like Frank Castle is. Charlie Cox would be absolutely thrilled. I would be chomping at the bit to do that."
It was a short answer, but it gave the room a sense of how he thinks. Matt Murdock might hesitate. Cox would not.
The place of Daredevil: Born Again
Daredevil: Born Again comes across as more than another Marvel show lined up on a schedule. It feels heavier, almost like a return that was building piece by piece. The character had already slipped back into the MCU, not in a big announcement, but in smaller flashes. First in Spider-Man: No Way Home in 2021, where Matt Murdock appeared for only a moment, just enough to defend Peter Parker. Then again, in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, a year later. That one had a lighter mood, almost playful, but still showed him fighting again. And yes, even wearing that yellow suit straight from the comics.
Those short appearances kind of worked as a door opener. Not wide, but enough. The new series, now set for 2025, is the step through it. Marvel Studios confirmed it will run for more than ten episodes. At the same time, Variety and Deadline both reported changes behind the scenes, rewrites, and even reshoots. Things shifted, production stretched, and stories adjusted. But the one part that never moved was the lead. Cox stays at the center.
A character shaped by the streets
Matt Murdock was never the kind of hero to cross galaxies or fight alien invasions; his stage is New York, the streets and rooftops and courtrooms that frame his life, and the Netflix series from 2015 to 2018 leaned on that mood, with crime and corruption filling most of the story and long fights in narrow halls that felt rough and real. When the MCU brought him back, the style shifted a little, lighter in tone at moments, but the same core stayed in place: the lawyer in the daylight and the vigilante moving at night, a tone that Daredevil: Born Again is expected to carry forward.
Cox, in New Orleans, echoed that idea. He said Murdock is not a team player by nature. That does not come from speculation, but from his own read on the role. It matches the way the character has been written for years, fighting at ground level while others battle cosmic forces.
Talk about the New Avengers
The timing of the question was connected with what Marvel had already put out. Thunderbolts arrived in 2024, gathering heroes and antiheroes in one story. That film made audiences think about lineups, about who might come next. The phrase New Avengers has circulated in fan discussions since then.
In that context, Cox was asked. He gave his view, careful to underline the limits. Any step like that belongs to Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige. His answer was personal, not official.
Why the remarks stood out
The reaction came partly because Cox had not spoken publicly about this before. He pointed out Murdock’s solitary streak. Then, without pause, he switched tone and admitted that he, as Charlie Cox, would be eager for the chance. That split between role and actor caught attention.
There was also a lighter note. Coverage of the panel included the reminder that a team might need a lawyer. It connected directly with Murdock’s double life as an attorney and vigilante. The comment was small, but it stuck.
What is confirmed
Daredevil: Born Again is set to premiere in 2025, and the road has been longer than most Marvel shows, with Variety and Deadline noting rewrites and new scenes along the way, yet the focus never shifted. Charlie Cox remains at the center, leading a full series again after years away, and for now, that is the only part confirmed. There is no word from Marvel about the New Avengers or any other team, just Cox sharing his thoughts in front of fans at a convention.
Closing note
Trending
The GalaxyCon moment was brief, but it shaped the conversation. Murdock, as written, might resist an offer to join. Cox, as himself, would embrace it. That does not decide what Marvel will do. It simply shows the actor’s interest.
With Daredevil: Born Again on the calendar for 2025, that is the next step the audience can expect. Anything beyond that, including the New Avengers, remains outside official announcements. The panel answer stands as a glimpse into how Cox imagines his character could, or could not, fit into a team.
