UPDATE: Marvel has confirmed the news! Cox is officially set to play Matt Murdock on the upcoming Netflix series.

Latino-Review is reporting that Stardust and "Boardwalk Empire" star Charlie Cox could be the man without fear in Marvel Entertainment's upcoming Netflix series "Daredevil." The site reports this is just a rumor for the time being, but check back here for updates on casting for the series very soon.

It was revealed this weekend that The Cabin in the Woods director Drew Goddard had stepped away from the series in order to focus on Sony's "The Amazing Spider-Man" spin-off The Sinister Six with "Spartacus" creator Steven S. DeKnight stepping in to take his place as executive producer and showrunner on the series.

"Daredevil" is just one of four new shows that will debut on Netflix from Marvel Entertainment which also include "Iron Fist," "Luke Cage," "Jessica Jones," and a mini-series event of "The Defenders" that brings them all together. Production is scheduled to begin on the series this summer with a target release in 2015.
