Charlie is well known for his acting, but little is known of his charitable work. Charlie was unprepared for the response he received when he asked for some toys to take to local hospitals and schools. When he asked, someone answered. And did they ever….. Also we learned that he was up for the part of the young Han Solo in the spinoff of the Star Wars franchise. He had a cute answer when asked how come he didn’t get the part. #CharlieCox #Daredevil #TheDefenders #MattMurdock
Charlie Cox asked for some Daredevil toys to take to hospitals and schools – and got a big surprise
Charlie Cox wasn’t expecting what he got when he asked for some Daredevil toys to take to hospitals and schools.
The Daredevil star asked Funko for some Pop! Vinyl figures to share with youngsters and was surprised by the response he got from the company.

Marvel shared a photo of Cox sitting on a settee basically blocked in by a wonderful mountain of more than 100 Daredevil figures.
“We were extremely happy to help,” the company responded to the tweet.
Meanwhile, Cox admitted last week how spending two years playing the title role in Marvel’s Daredevil Netflix series cost him the young Han Solo role.
“I realised I had gotten into a habit of not making eye contact, because the only thing I had done for two years is play someone who is blind,” he explained.
Earlier this year, Cox revealed that his contract with Marvel includes potential big-screen appearances.
