Spider-Man: Daredevil's No Way Home Cameo Needs To Include Foggy & Karen

Daredevil's rumored role in Spider-Man: No Way Home needs to include cameos from Foggy Nelson and Karen Page. The upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe movie is expected to deal with the multiverse in some capacity to bring back actors and characters from past Marvel movies. Rumors also indicate that Charlie Cox will reprise his role as Matt Murdock, a.k.a. Daredevil, after playing him in three seasons of Netflix's Daredevil series and its Marvel crossover, The Defenders. Daredevil's appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home has not been confirmed, but it is widely believed that the Devil of Hell's Kitchen will be seen.

Speculation about a possible Daredevil appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home began almost immediately after Spider-Man: Far From Home ended. The film's shocking mid-credits scene saw J. Jonah Jameson debut a recording from Mysterio that revealed Peter Parker is Spider-Man. This led many fans to believe that Peter could need some help with the law to prove that he is not the web-slinging superhero Mysterio framed for the destruction in London. Matt Murdock isn't just a blind superhero protecting the streets of New York, though, as he is a lawyer by day. He and Jennifer Walters, a.k.a. She-Hulk, were the fan-favorite suggestions to be who Peter could call if he sought legal advice in Spider-Man: No Way Home.

If Peter does find himself in legal hot water during Spider-Man: No Way Home, Matt Murdock's services will likely come in handy, but he shouldn't be the only Daredevil cast member to take part in Peter's legal affairs. Matt traditionally practices law with his best friend Foggy Nelson, and the two of them often are aided by Karen Page. Marvel TV and Netflix's Daredevil not only perfectly cast Charlie Cox as Matt, but Elden Henson and Deborah Ann Woll proved to be excellent choices for Foggy and Karen. Their close relationship in the comics and Daredevil means that they too need to return in Spider-Man: No Way Home. A trial centered around Spider-Man's secret identity is something that Matt would likely need help on, and having Foggy and Karen by his side would give him the support needed to win the case.

Even though Spider-Man: No Way Home's connectivity to Daredevil's continuity is unknown, the appearance of Foggy and Karen alongside Matt would actually line up incredibly well with how the third season of Netflix's show ended. The finale saw Matt, Foggy, and Karen mend their broken relationships and turn Nelson & Murdock into Nelson, Murdock, & Page. Netflix and Marvel TV canceling Daredevil before season 4 meant fans never got a chance to see this new practice in action. The MCU could fix this by making Foggy and Karen an integral part of Matt's lawyer career right from the start of his movie appearances.

Deborah Ann Woll shot down speculation that she was photographed with Kirsten Dunst for Spider-Man: No Way Home reshoots, but that doesn't mean she and Henson haven't or won't film something. After all, J.K. Simmons' cameo in Spider-Man: Far From Home was done incredibly close to the film's release to keep it from leaking. Marvel could try to do something similar with Woll and Henson. If they ultimately don't reprise their roles as Foggy Nelson and Karen Page in Spider-Man: No Way Home, then hopefully Marvel Studios will eventually decide to keep Woll and Henson around when it comes time to explore more of Daredevil's MCU story.
