Charlie Cox claimed that he received a part of the script with a fake title a day before the audition. Even though there was no mention of Daredevil in the script, it was confirmed by his agent as he gave a brief description of Matt Murdock. His agent revealed that Matt was a “redhead, tall, athletic, gymnastic, strong” person. While talking about the detail Cox’s agent forgot to mention the most important part, that the character was blind.
In the same conversation, Cox revealed that he got to know about the blind part after he read lines with his friend, who pointed out the fact. Cox remembered, “And he said, ‘I think — isn’t Daredevil blind?’ And I said — and I didn’t have time for this — and I was like, ‘No, dude, I’m pretty sure they would have told me if the guy was blind.’” To make sure it was true Cox confirmed it with his agent who replied by an email saying, “Oh, yeah, and he’s blind.”
Phew, looks like that would have come as a huge surprise for Charlie Cox.
