It’s now been over a year since Daredevil season 3 hit our screens, bringing the Netflix series to an early close, but in the time since, fans haven’t stopped campaigning for Charlie Cox’s Man Without Fear to be brought back in some way and be integrated into the MCU. And while Marvel aren’t allowed to make any moves with any of the Defenders until at least 2020 – due to contractual obligations – we already know that Kevin Feige and co. have every intention of bringing the group into their cinematic universe, even if it seems a few of the heroes may be rebooted with new actors.

But for Matt Murdock in particular, I have been told that Cox is likely to return to the role in future MCU films, which has seemingly been corroborated by MCU Cosmic, too. And now, I am hearing a bit more on the situation, with a source saying that Daredevil’s next MCU appearance has been decided upon.

From what I have been told, it’ll be Spider-Man 3 where he shows up next (as expected), and this fits in pretty well with previous reports that have said Murdock might be assisting Peter Parker now that he needs a lawyer after being outed at the end of Far From Home. It’s unclear how heavily he’ll factor into things and if his role will extend throughout the entire film or it’ll just be a brief part to remind audiences that he’s still out there in the MCU, but the upcoming threequel will indeed mark his next appearance in the franchise.
