Born again episode 5 is his least favorite
If it were up to Charlie Cox, episode 5 of “Daredevil: Born Again” would have been cut.
Before the release of the Disney+ reboot, rumors spread over a first version of the series that saw the death of Elden Henson’s foggy Nelson and the Karen page of Deborah Ann Woll outside the screen. It is clear that the show had been reworked, but in a sit-down with The playlist“Born Again” star Cox said that the fifth episode of the series, entitled “With Interest”, remained completely unchanged to his dismay.
“I don’t know if this is interesting, but I will say this among all this, there was one episode that we did not change at all,” Cox explained. “It is the episode in the bank, and that was part of the original [shoot]. We shot that before the strike. That was part of the original [draft]And only for my money I was not in it. ‘
The episode in question contains Cox’s Matt Murdock, also known as Daredevil, trapped in the middle of a bank robbery while trying to get a business loan for his law firm. Cox called it his “least favorite” of the season, adding that he “pushed as much opposite as I felt it was possible.”
“That feels like a game from the 70s,” said Cox. “Nowadays too much technology to make that work. And also, I didn’t think the actual device used for the theft was refined enough.”
He continued: “I really pushed back on the episode, and yet I hear from so many people that they love that episode. So it’s just going to show that you just don’t know. It is so subjective. Everyone is different. And I have heard that episode rated one of the highest. When they do their reviews, it is one of them.”
