Charlie Cox Movie Rising Through the Netflix Ranks Following Daredevil's Departure

By Charlie Ridgely

Daredevil may have left Netflix but that doesn't mean Charlie Cox as totally disappeared from the streamer's lineup. Cox developed a massive and dedicated following thanks to his turn as Matt Murdock in Daredevil, a series that was released exclusively on Netflix. Earlier this month, all of Netflix's Marvel shows made their way over to Disney+, as Marvel Studios regained the rights to the characters. Fortunately, in the wake of Daredevil's exit, another Cox-starring title has appeared on Netflix, and subscribers are starting to catch on.

Netflix recently added a 2018 film called King of Thieves to its streaming roster. The movie stars Cox and Michael Caine and tells the true story of a group of men attempting to pull off the biggest jewel heist in the history of London. Following its arrival on the service, King of Thieves has started popping up in the Netflix Top 10 movies list,

The daily rotating list shows the most popular movies on Netflix from the previous day. King of Thieves has not only made its way to the Top 10, but rose up to the second overall position on Tuesday. Thursday's edition of the list shows King of Thieves as the fifth-most popular film on the service, as it continues to hang around the top half of the list.
