MCU Upcoming Series Daredevil Born Again: Starring Charlie Cox As Daredevil

The MCU’s roster of street-level heroes is expanding with the addition of Daredevil: Born Again. After Netflix’s original series was canceled after three seasons, Daredevil fans campaigned to save their hero. The studio obliged by introducing Cox in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Later, the announcement of an 18-episode-long series was made at SDCC. Daredevil is a Marvel comic book character that first appeared in 1964. He’s a blind attorney-turned-vigilante who will keep New York City safe from criminals and supervillains alike. Born Again will follow Daredevil when he’s forced to confront an even greater evil that threatens his entire world. This series will be shown on Disney after the original series was canceled. While it is known that Charlie Cox will star in the series, it’s not known who else will be in it or have recurring roles. Charlie Cox played Matt Murdock on Netflix’s Daredevil and played a supporting role in Spider-Man: No Way Home. He also has a recurring role on Netflix’s The Crown. Marvel’s new Daredevil series will be titled: “Daredevil: Born Again” and they plan to develop this series into a potential spinoff series should the show be well received by viewers.

What is the release date for Daredevil: Born Again? 

The release date for Daredevil: Born Again hasn’t been released by Marvel Studios yet, but it has been announced that it will be coming to Disney+ at a date to be announced. It is slated to come out sometime in 2024.

What is Daredevil About? 

Daredevil is a Marvel comic character that first appeared in 1964 and this is an American crime-fighting superhero. He was created by Stan Lee and Bill Everett. He’s a blind lawyer who decides to follow his father’s example and become a crime fighter, even though he has no other superpowers. While he does have heightened senses, these aren’t his main powers. His other abilities include hearing and seeing things better than the average person would be able to see them, but only when he concentrates hard enough on something. He also emits this extremely strong sonic scream that can be heard from miles away, but Daredevil never uses it as a weapon against people. He has portrayed a real man who has a real-life job and goes through the same stresses that normal people do, but he has the mindset of someone stronger than those people. In Daredevil: Born Again, it’s not known what kind of storyline will be at play, but it will probably follow a similar narrative as the comic. 

What to expect from Daredevil: Born Again?

What’s most impressive about the new Daredevil series is that while it is known that Charlie Cox will star, it’s not known who else will be in it or have recurring roles. It’s also not known what kind of storylines to expect in Daredevil: Born Again. The next series in the MCU is Spider-Man: No Way Home, which will be released on July 2nd and it’s set two months after Avengers: Endgame. This means that Daredevil may be set during that period or around the same time as Spider-Man: No Way Home. 

What will be the targeted audience? 

The targeted audience will be the same age group as the original series. The original series took place in  2015 and the target audience was aged 12–34. While the storyline may come across as a bit more violent than what TV watchers have seen before, the age group hasn’t changed.

What will be interesting about the series? 

Daredevil is an American crime-fighting superhero and he’s been a popular comic book character for over fifty years. The series on Netflix was a huge hit and the fan following for this character is huge. After the original series was canceled, there were plenty of petitions launched to bring the series back that garnered a lot of signatures from fans who were saddened by the cancellation. After three seasons of success on Netflix, it makes sense that Marvel Studios would want to continue making more Daredevil content.
