Conflicting rumors are swirling about Spider-Man 4 and Charlie Cox’s possible return as Daredevil. Some sources say he will appear in the film. However, a recent insider update denies this, leaving fans uncertain about Daredevil’s MCU future. The news has sparked online debates, with fans speculating about ways the character could still be included.
Charlie Cox’s Schedule Could Affect Spider-Man 4
According to insider My Time to Shine, Charlie Cox will not appear in Spider-Man 4. This contradicts an earlier report from Nuke The Fridge, which cited a “reliable source” confirming his involvement. One significant factor is Cox joining the cast of the play This Is How It Goes, which begins production this month in the UK and Ghana. Consequently, his filming schedule may conflict with Spider-Man 4 production.
Moreover, even if scheduling allowed for a cameo, the logistics of coordinating multiple high-profile actors could present additional challenges. Fans remain hopeful that Marvel Studios might find a creative solution to include Daredevil, even in a brief appearance.
Film Details and Supporting Cast
Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, Spider-Man 4 will see Tom Holland returning as Spider-Man, with a supporting cast including Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal (Punisher), and newcomers Sadie Sink and Trammell Tillman. Marvel has scheduled Spider-Man 4 for release on July 31, 2026.
In addition, Spider-Man 4 will reportedly explore new storylines inspired by the “Brand New Day” comic arc, creating opportunities for returning characters like Daredevil. As such, fans are eagerly speculating on possible plot twists and cameos, keeping anticipation high.
The conflicting reports highlight the uncertainty surrounding Daredevil’s return, especially after his brief interaction with Spider-Man in Spider-Man: No Way Home. While some sources suggest his cameo is unlikely due to scheduling conflicts, fans remain hopeful. As a result, any official confirmation from Marvel Studios will be closely watched by the MCU community. Furthermore, Daredevil’s potential appearance could set up future storylines in upcoming MCU projects, particularly with crossover possibilities involving Spider-Man and other street-level heroes. Until Marvel provides clarity, the character’s involvement remains a hot topic among fans and insiders alike.
