Spider-Man: No Way Home Team Reveal Tricky Daredevil Temptation
“That was the challenge with this movie: bringing all these other characters in,” Sommers explained. “We love these characters, and you would love to see them do all kinds of stuff, but the question is, what is there room for? I could watch any of these characters we brought in just do a whole other movie by themselves or in some various combination, but we have to, ultimately, service the story of our Peter Parker and our Spider-Man, no matter how tempting it is.”
Sommers added “We had so many ideas come up in the room of, ‘Wouldn’t it be cool if this guy does that, and these two meet and do that…?’ There’s just so many exciting permutations now that we’re playing in this sandbox. At the end of the day, there was only so much we could do. We didn’t want to do things that would distract from the story of our Peter and our Spider-Man. So absolutely, once we knew we were gonna have Matt Murdock, it’s like, ‘He could do this, he could do that, that would be so cool, wouldn’t that be great?’”
It wasn’t just Matt Murdock tempting the writers when they were playing in the Spider-Man sandbox, either. “We always had to pull back on a lot of things to just make sure we maintained our focus.”
Murdock wasn’t the only character from Daredevilto re-emerge in the MCU last month: Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin had much more screen time when he was revealed to still be at the top New York’s criminal underworld in Marvel’s Disney+ series, Hawkeye.
