Heather Glenn Gushes Over Charlie Cox’s Leadership on ‘Daredevil: Born Again’

The show, boldly titled Season 1, dramatically and exhilaratingly wrapped up with intriguing hints about future installments in the series. Despite the intense violence and discord portrayed on-screen, a notable cast member has revealed how filming remains secure due to the “priceless gem” that is .

Discussing with George Edelman from MovieWeb, Margarita Levieva – starring as Heather Glenn in “Born Again” – expressed her excitement about working alongside the actor who has embodied Daredevil for over a decade, Charlie Cox. Levieva found it a delight to work with him and shared that a production’s atmosphere is often shaped by its lead, and there isn’t anyone more suitable than Cox. She stated:

“Working with Charlie Cox has been an absolute joy for me. The tone of a production is heavily influenced by its main actor, and I couldn’t think of anyone better to lead us.

Working with Charlie is a joyful experience. He’s not just an exceptional actor, but also a remarkable human being. His professional demeanor, both before and during work, makes him a fantastic lead. The lead actor significantly influences the entire production, and when they enter the set, their attitude, behavior towards crew members, and fellow cast members can shape the atmosphere. With someone like Charlie, who is genuinely concerned about making everyone feel valued, respected, and comfortable, it creates an environment where one can truly perform, be present, and explore different aspects of the character because it feels secure.

‘Daredevil: Born Again’ Has Brought R-Rated Marvel Content Back to Disney+

As a devoted movie critic for years, I’ve grown accustomed to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) delivering sparkling, somewhat pure family entertainment, featuring vibrant and flamboyant superheroes engaged in epic battles against alien threats, safeguarding our world with each CGI-infused escapade. However, the landscape is changing, and while we’ll undeniably continue to witness the unbroken saga of Captain Americas, Spider-Mans, and Avengers, Daredevil: Born Again has irrefutably demonstrated that there’s a significant craving for something far more somber.

Moving from intense gun battles reminiscent of the bloodiest scenes in “Game of Thrones” to brutal moments that leave you shuddering – we’re sure you catch our drift – “Born Again” has not hesitated to showcase violence, despite initial assumptions that it would tone down under the Disney banner. Now, season 2 is gearing up for an epic war between Vincent D’Onofrio’s Wilson Fisk and Charlie Cox’s Daredevil army, a conflict many predict will bring back some familiar faces from his Defenders days.

Beyond this, the ending of “Daredevil: Born Again” lays the groundwork for Jon Bernthal’s Punisher spin-off, an unanticipated extension to the series. Once thought to be out of fashion merely a few years back, Marvel Studios has skillfully sewn together the multitude of loose ends left by different studios over the past two decades. With Fox X-Men actors poised for “Avengers: Doomsday,” and Netflix’s Marvel shows rejoining the mix, it seems that the notion of Marvel exhaustion is merely a myth.
