Cox stated that “there’s only one Karen Page”, referencing the character’s ongoing and often dramatic relationship with Matt Murdock. The actor also expressed his desire for Matt Murdock to continue exploring, as he believes there are still many stories to be told in the Daredevil universe.
“I would like for Matt to continue exploring because there’s a lot of fun stories to tell still… if you’re a true Daredevil fan I feel like there’s no escaping that there’s only one Karen Page.”
