“Charlie is an unbelievable…”-After Patting Henry Cavill, Netflix&#8217;s &#8216;One Piece&#8217; Director Weighs In on &#8216;Daredevil&#8217; Actor Charlie Cox Commitment

Netflix is about to test its most ambitious live-action adaptation yet. With the
curtains all set to roll down on the debut season of One Piece, its pilot
director, Marc Jobst, has a few words to share. As he gets ready to roll his
cast’s pirating adventures, the director opined his views on other Netflix
heavyweights. He shared his thoughts on The Witcher
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-witcher/]’s Henry Cavill
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/] and former Charlie Cox-led Netflix
property, Daredevil, which he himself directed.

The director acclaimed Henry Cavill’s sword-fighting skills

and highlighted how it was of immense importance to the show. Meanwhile, his
focus was on Daredevil actor Charlie Cox. Now a part of the MCU, the show ran on
Netflix for three seasons. It was widely popular and acclaimed for its portrayal
of the Marvel character.


MARC JOBST WAS ALL PRAISES FOR CHARLIE COX

Jobst, who directed the iconic rooftop episode on the show, went on record to
say how incredibly committed Charlie Cox was to the role. In an exclusive chat
with Screenrant
[https://screenrant.com/daredevil-charlie-cox-great-why-marvel-director/], Jobst
said, “Charlie is an unbelievable physical athlete.” The director reflected on
one behind-the-scenes event of an episode where the actor was required to do
intense physical exercises. Cox handled it magnificently by doing handstands
effortlessly, leaving everyone awe-stunned.

Jobst comments are of remarkable importance as they come close on the heels of
Charlie Cox, making a full-fledged MCU entry. Cox has already graced screens as
the MCU’s Matt Murdock aka Daredevil in Spiderman: No Way Home and She-Hulk.
However, the upcoming Daredevil: Born Again, shall pit him rightfully into the
MCU crime world.

Regardless, Netflix’s adaptation of Daredevil was moving ahead impeccably. As
such, why did the streaming giant stop the show’s production post-Season 3?


WHY DID NETFLIX HAND OVER CHARLIE COX AND DAREDEVIL BACK TO MARVEL?

Netflix had acquired licensing rights for Marvel characters such as Daredevil,
Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage, among others, to develop its own mini Marvel
universe. Although the results were pretty impressive and audience retention
notably good too, Netflix decided to pull the plug on its highly successful
Daredevil after Season 3, much to fans’ disappointment. Although Netflix did
have the chance to renegotiate licensing rights with Marvel, it decided to let
them go.



A big reason for it was Disney’s own streaming platform Disney+. Marvel Studios,
owned by Disney, brought back all its characters under one roof. From Fox to
Netflix characters, all were now part of the studios’ main timeline. While
Daredevil has already marked its comeback, the X-Men characters from the Fox
universe shall return soon with Deadpool 3. Additionally, Charlie Cox is to
headline several MCU projects following his Daredevil: Born Again.
