In the mid-2010s, three seasons of Daredevil captivated audiences with its gritty portrayal of Hell's Kitchen, earning critical acclaim and becoming a fan favorite among Marvel series. The 2018 cancellation by Netflix, therefore, came as a shock to many.
While Charlie Cox's Daredevil made brief appearances in subsequent MCU projects like She-Hulk and Spider-Man: No Way Home, a standalone series seemed unlikely. But, against expectations, the Man Without Fear is back. Though now streaming on the more family-friendly Disney+, Marvel promises a return to the grit and action that defined the original series.

What Is Daredevil: Born Again About?
Daredevil: Born Again serves as a sequel to the 2015 Daredevil series, carrying over most characters and plot elements. While its precise placement within the MCU timeline remains unclear, Charlie Cox's Daredevil has played a significant role in The Defenders, with smaller appearances in She-Hulk and Spider-Man: No Way Home. His primary antagonist, Wilson Fisk, also appeared in the Disney+ series Echo.
While inspired by Frank Miller's seminal "Born Again" storyline, the show isn't a direct adaptation. Marvel's official synopsis describes the series as follows:
Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox), a blind lawyer with heightened abilities, fights for justice through his law firm, while former mob boss Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) pursues his own political ambitions in New York. As their pasts resurface, an inevitable confrontation looms.
Will There Be a Season 2?
Initially planned as a 19-episode season, Daredevil: Born Again has been divided into two nine-episode seasons for streaming. The second season will cover the remaining half of the original story arc, though a release date has yet to be announced.
What About the Rest of 'The Defenders'?
Daredevil was part of The Defenders, a miniseries that followed the individual shows featuring Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist. The return of Daredevil raises the possibility of other Defenders returning. Marvel's head of streaming, television, and animation has stated that they are "exploring" this possibility.
