You're gonna want to get acquainted with this guy
If you've never heard of Charlie Cox, get ready to learn a whole lot about him! He's an actor who's been in the game for more than a decade. He's wowed on screen and on the stage and he's coming to a streaming screen near you.
He's THE Daredevil, in fact. Charlie is the latest face of Marvel as Matt Murdock in Daredevil, the series premiering on Netflix April 10th. Murdock is a blind lawyer who spends his nights masquerading as Daredevil in the streets of Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan.
Charlie was born in London. That means he comes complete with a swoon-worthy London accent that aides in his ability to make you fall head over heels for him.
Charlie swapped his English accent for an Irish one when he played Owen Slater in Boardwalk Empire. As Owen, Charlie was soft spoken, sweet, strong and oh-so sexy.
The Theory of Everything received a lot of accolades, but one gem that can't be forgotten is Charlie Cox as Jonathan Hellyer Jones.
Charlie's first big role was in 2007. He played Tristan Thorn in Stardust and stole our hearts like magic.
Charlie Cox looks damn good in a suit and tie, ladies and gentlemen.
It doesn't take much for Charlie to look incredible.
With his role in Daredevil, Charlie's career is set to take off. On top of Daredevil, Charlie will reprise his role as Matt Murdock when Marvel releases The Defenders (a Marvel superhero crossover series akin to The Avengers) on Netflix.
When Charlie sports a bit of sexy stubble, it just makes us want to snuggle up even closer.
Charlie is the youngest of five children. He was born in 1982, which means he got a hefty dose of the amazingness that was the world in the 1980s. Lucky for him, fashion was a touch better in the UK in the '80s than in the US.
Short. Long. Wavy. Straight. Side-swept. We love Charlie's hair every which way.
Charlie played the Duke of Crowborough in the pilot episode of Downton Abbey. It's common knowledge that the show took off in a huge way after the pilot. We're not saying Charlie Cox was responsible for Downton Abbey's success, but we're also not saying he wasn't.
In the 2005 film Casanova starring Heath Ledger, Charlie plays Giovanni Bruni, a sort of Casanova in training. By the looks of Charlie, it wouldn't have taken take much charm school for Giovanni to follow in Casanova's footsteps.
Last but certainly not least, Charlie Cox has a grin like no other. How can you not fall in love with a smile like that? Keep smiling, Charlie.
