In the mid-2010s, three seasons of *Daredevil* captivated audiences with a gritty portrayal of Hell's Kitchen, earning it a spot as one of the best-reviewed Marvel series. The shock of its cancellation by Netflix in 2018 left fans reeling. However, Charlie Cox's portrayal of Daredevil has since made notable appearances in lighter MCU projects like *She-Hulk* and *Spider-Man: No Way Home*. Despite these cameos, the prospect of a new solo series seemed unlikely—until now. *Daredevil: Born Again* is set to deliver more action and intensity than ever before, even on the family-friendly Disney+ platform.

What Is Daredevil: Born Again About?

Daredevil: Born Again serves as a sequel to the 2015 Daredevil series, with most characters and plot points carrying over. While its exact placement in the MCU timeline remains unclear, Charlie Cox's Daredevil has played significant roles in The Defenders, She-Hulk, and Spider-Man: No Way Home. The primary antagonist, Wilson Fisk, also appeared in the Disney+ series Echo.

IGN recently explored Frank Miller's original Born Again arc, which inspired the new show's title, though the series won't be a direct adaptation. Here's Marvel's official synopsis for Daredevil: Born Again:

Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox), a blind lawyer with heightened abilities, fights for justice through his bustling law firm, while former mob boss Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) pursues his political ambitions in New York. As their past identities resurface, both men find themselves on a collision course.

Will There Be a Season 2?

Originally planned as a 19-episode season, Daredevil: Born Again has been split into two parts due to the streaming format. The first season consists of nine episodes, with the second season featuring the remaining nine episodes of the original arc. There's no confirmed release date yet for the second season on Disney+.

What About the Rest of 'The Defenders'?

Daredevil was part of The Defenders, which included Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist. With Daredevil's return, there's potential for the other Defenders to make a comeback. Marvel's head of streaming, television, and animation has mentioned they are "exploring" this possibility in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.
