Swordsman's MCU Fate: Tony Dalton's Accent Surprise!
2 Aug
Summary
- Tony Dalton's return as Swordsman is unconfirmed by Marvel.
- He used a fake British accent on set to differentiate character.
- Swordsman's finances could fund future vigilante endeavors.
The return of Jack Duquesne, also known as Swordsman, to the Marvel Cinematic Universe is currently uncertain. Actor Tony Dalton, who reprised his role from 'Hawkeye' in 'Daredevil: Born Again,' has stated he has received no confirmation regarding his character's future appearances. Dalton previously surprised Marvel producers on the set of 'Hawkeye' by adopting a pseudo-transatlantic British accent to differentiate his character from his acclaimed portrayal of Lalo Salamanca in 'Better Call Saul.'
This accent choice, initially unnoticed, became permanent as Dalton humorously informed producers, "Well, it's too late now. We're going British on this one." While Marvel is known for its secrecy regarding future projects, Dalton's absence from the 'Born Again' wrap party suggests his involvement in that specific season might be unlikely. Nevertheless, Swordsman's established financial entanglement with the vigilante community, having provided Karen Page with access to funds, leaves the door open for his strategic reintroduction in future storylines.
