Daredevil lead Charlie Cox can't really comprehend the excitement about Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, despite playing its tousled engineer Gustave, but he is happy for you. Verso actor Ben Starr can relate. He didn't expect Clair Obscur to go supernova, either.

"I didn't expect it to be this big," says Starr, whose breakout role as Final Fantasy 16 protagonist Clive made him a certified video games spokesperson, on a recent episode of the Kit & Krysta podcast. "So [Charlie Cox is] not going to expect it to be this big."
