Where there’s smoke, there’s fire, and now further fuel has been added to the flames that a Daredevil Disney+ series starring Charlie Cox is in the works.

The latest report that lends credence to the Daredevil Disney+ series being in development comes from Variety. Matt Corman and Chris Ord will write and executive produce the Disney+ series. The duo is best known for creating the spy drama series Covert Affairs. Both Corman, Ord, and Marvel declined to comment, and the show isn’t officially announced yet.

Cox, who famously starred in the Netflix Marvel Daredevil series, most recently reprised the role of Matt Murdock in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Lead Daredevil villain Kingpin also appeared in Hawkeye with actor Vincent D’Onofrio reprising the role. With both actors fully in the MCU fold, it’s clear Marvel has plans for the duo. Cox has also supported a PG-13 series for the character despite the Netflix show being darker in tone.

The news comes after the Netflix Marvel shows were added to Disney+. Interestingly, the Daredevil television series and the other pre-Disney+ Marvel shows weren’t added to the official MCU timeline, putting their canon status in doubt. Daredevil originally streamed on Netflix for three seasons and 39 total episodes with Cox also appearing in The Defenders.
