Charlie Cox made his big debut as Daredevil in the sixth episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, and as you know, he is sporting a new yellow and red suit, which looks pretty cool! This is a design that was pulled right from the comics.
During a recent interview with Rotten Tomatoes, Charlie Cox was asked about the new suit and its color scheme. He then went on to share his experience of seeing the suit for the first time when he went in for a fitting.
“Yeah, so I had to go to LA to have a fitting. And I walk in, I can say this now, I walk in, I knew I wasn’t going to wear it in Spider-Man, I knew that much. But whilst we’re doing Spider-Man, we were getting ready to do She-Hulk, and so I got to go to LA to a fitting and I walk in, and the suit is hanging there, but then there’s a picture, there’s a drawing on the wall, and it has the gold and red, and I was like ‘No way!’
“It’s funny, because when you play the character this long, you’re emotionally connected to the fans’ response. So you see something like that and it means something to you, but you know what it means, what it’s going to mean. Like, you start to have a sense of how people are going to respond to that. So I saw that, and then they come in with it, I’m like ‘Oh man, this is unreal.’”
I personally like the new suit! It seems like a lot of fans aren’t into it, but I think it’s great! I assume that will be the suit he wears in the upcoming Daredevil: Born Again series, but we’ll just have to wait and see. You never know! Marvel does love to change their characters’ costumes up with every new project.
The sixth episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law hits Disney+ next Thursday, September 22.
