A new Spider-Man 4 update has shed some light on what fans can expect from Daredevil in the upcoming movie.
What’s the latest Spider-Man: Brand New Day update?
According to a new insider from Daniel Richtman, despite rumors about his inclusion in the film, Daredevil is “still not” in the upcoming Brand New Day. Charlie Cox’s inclusion in the film has been a point of rumors for some time, but despite fan hopes and theorizing, Richtman notes he won’t be.
Richtman also notes that a recent casting call for several Asian actors was likely due to Marvel Studios looking to include The Hand in the upcoming film. Although the film has had run-ins with Daredevil throughout their history, The Hand have also been a big factor in The Punisher’s comics, with Jon Bernthal’s character also set to appear in Brand New Day.
