DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN Ready to Meet Fans' Expectations, Cast: Because We Are Fans Too

DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN will premiere on Disney+ starting March 4. After about 3 seasons plus the series THE DEFENDERS, Daredevil will be back in action. In fact, Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) was teased in the film SPIDER-MAN NO WAY HOME and the series SHE-HULK, but his role was still just a cameo. Fans want more.  

Charlie Cox mentioned that the story in BORN AGAIN will start from the character of Matt Murdock who is in the process of healing from trauma. "Like a human, right now Matt has many wounds that are being bandaged. Slowly, he will begin to unwrap those bandages," he said at the press conference. 

This series is a continuation of the previous 3 seasons rather than a reboot/reimagining. Therefore, the cast from the Netflix version will still star in this series. The two main characters, Charlie Cox and Vincent D'onofrio, still can't believe that they were recruited by Marvel Studios to star in this series. 

DAREDEVIL BORN AGAIN will focus on the rivalry between Matt/Daredevil and Wilson/Kingpin. Now, they not only meet as vigilante and mafia boss but also as lawyer and mayor. This dynamic brings freshness and depth to this new series."It's like we are both vampires trying to live in the morning light. We, who are synonymous with the dark criminal world, are now in the public spotlight," said Vincent. 

Kingpin is an iconic villain. Vincent states that the villain figure always has its own appeal, especially Kingpin. "Kingpin in this series will get the ultimate version. He is still the same person with new plans. He is resolving issues with his wife, but he has another side that is stretching its claws of influence," he assured.

On the other hand, Matt Murdock's romantic dynamics with Karen Page (Deborah Ann Woll) will be further explored. It will be interesting to follow how Matt balances his love life, career, and also his superhero actions. 

As for the action scenes, there's no need to worry. Sana Amanat, the producer, stated that the action sequences in this series are the result of hard work from all the cast and crew. "As fans, we have to ensure that the action is as good as its predecessor," she emphasized. She even memorized the term spinning kick, showing how deeply she delves into every detail of the fight choreography. Although airing in the MCU, Daredevil will still carry an adult rating and the violence needed for the story.

One of the highly anticipated appearances by fans is that of the Punisher (John Bernthal), who is also another iconic character in the story.
