The first season of the American television series Daredevil: Born Again, based on Marvel Comics featuring the character Daredevil, sees Matt Murdock fighting for justice and on a collision course against former mob boss Wilson Fisk who is running for mayor in New York. It is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), sharing continuity with the films and television series of the franchise. The season was produced by Marvel Studios, via its Marvel Television label, with Dario Scardapane serving as showrunner with Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead as lead directors.

Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio reprises their respective roles as Murdock and Fisk from Marvel's Netflix television series and prior Marvel Studios productions, with Margarita Levieva, Deborah Ann Woll, Elden Henson, Zabryna Guevara, Nikki M. James, Genneya Walton, Arty Froushan, Clark Johnson, Michael Gandolfini, Ayelet Zurer, Jon Bernthal, Wilson Bethel, and Jeremy Earl also starring. Development of the series began by March 2022. Christopher Ord and Matthew Corman were hired as head writers by May, and gave the season an episodic structure and lighter tone than Marvel Television's Netflix series, Daredevil (2015–2018). Born Again was announced in July with a planned 18-episode first season. Filming began in early March 2023 in New York, but was suspended in June due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike. Marvel Studios decided to overhaul the season by late September and released Corman, Ord, and the initial directors, though Michael Cuesta, Jeffrey Nachmanoff, and David Boyd were still credited for episodes they had directed. Scardapane, Benson, and Moorhead were hired the following month, and the approach changed to be serialized and more directly connected to the Netflix series. Filming for a nine-episode first season resumed in January 2024 and wrapped in April.

The first season is scheduled to premiere on Disney+ on March 4, 2025, and will consist of nine episodes, as part of Phase Five of the MCU. A second season was confirmed in August 2024.[1]

Michael Cuesta, Jeffrey Nachmanoff, and David Boyd are credited directors for their work from before the season's creative overhaul,[5][6][7] after which Benson and Moorhead were hired to direct the remainder of the season.[8] Before the second season was confirmed, the season was expected to consist of 18 episodes divided into nine-episode halves.[9][10]

Additionally, Mohan Kapur reprises his MCU role as Yusuf Khan,[30] Kamar de los Reyes appears as Hector Ayala / White Tiger,[31][32] and Lou Taylor Pucci has been cast in an undisclosed role.[33] The character Muse will appear in the season.[32] Prior to the season's creative overhaul, Michael Gaston and Harris Yulin were known to be involved with the season.[6][34]

Production

edit

Development

edit

Initial work

edit

In March 2022, a Daredevil reboot series was reported to be in development, with Marvel Studios' Kevin Feige and Chris Gary serving as producers.[35][36] The series was confirmed to be in development for Disney+ in late May, with Matt Corman and Chris Ord attached as head writers and executive producers.[37] The Hollywood Reporter said it was the first of the Marvel Netflix series to "get a new but continued series",[38] later stating it would "technically be its fourth season".[39] Deadline Hollywood also described it as a fourth season.[40] During the 2022 San Diego Comic-Con in July, the series was announced as Daredevil: Born Again and was revealed to have 18 episodes for its first season.[41] Star Charlie Cox said an 18-episode series was a "huge undertaking", but he felt Matt Murdock being a lawyer allowed for many story possibilities and that was one of the reasons that the larger number of episodes was chosen.[42] Christian Holub at Entertainment Weekly believed the title was a reference to the character "literally being 'born again' into the official MCU" rather than the series being an adaptation of the "Born Again" storyline from the comics by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli.[43] Cox described Born Again as a "whole new thing" and not a fourth season of the Netflix series, which he felt was "the way to go. If you are going to do it again, do it differently."[44]

Michael Cuesta was revealed to be directing the first episode of the series in March 2023. Additional directors were expected to direct blocks of episodes.[6] Star Vincent D'Onofrio said they were working on two seasons and there would be "gigantic payoffs" during the second. He reiterated that they were approaching the new series differently from the Netflix series,[45] with few plans to connect to the Netflix series.[46] Jeffrey Nachmanoff and Clark Johnson—who was previously a director on the Marvel Netflix series Luke Cage (2016–2018)—joined the series as additional directors in May, with Johnson hired to direct two episodes.[7][21] David Boyd was also set to direct.[5]

Creative overhaul

edit

By late September 2023, after six of the first season's 18 episodes had been filmed,[47][10] Marvel Studios decided to overhaul the series with a new creative direction. Corman and Ord were let go as head writers, as were the directors for the remainder of the series. The studio began searching for new writers and directors. The Hollywood Reporter reported that Marvel Studios executives had reviewed the footage so far and realized that Born Again "wasn't working". Corman and Ord's episodic take on the series was said to be a large divergence from the Netflix version, including that Cox did not appear in costume as Daredevil until the fourth episode.[47] Marvel planned to retain some elements that had been shot, add new serialized elements, and move closer to the tone of the Netflix series.[47][8] Corman and Ord were expected to still be credited as executive producers.[47]

Dario Scardapane, a writer on Netflix's Daredevil spin-off series The Punisher (2017–2019), was hired to serve as showrunner for Born Again in October 2023.[8] This came after Marvel changed its approach to television production to have more traditional showrunners rather than head writers.[47] Scardapane was set to write new episodes as well as new scenes to fit with the pre-existing footage. Filmmaking duo Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead, who previously worked on the Marvel Studios series Moon Knight (2022) and the second season of Loki (2023), were hired to direct the remaining episodes of the first season.[8] D'Onofrio said the main creatives got together soon after Scardapane joined the project and decided that Born Again should harken back to the tone of the Netflix series and continue storylines from it rather than be a complete reset. He was pleased with the hiring of Benson and Moorhead, who he felt were Marvel's "hottest talent".[48] Cox said there was "a really fine balance to strike" with continuing on from an existing series and calling it a new first season, believing the new direction did a good job of "hav[ing] a reason for remaking it" while still being familiar to what came before.[46] In November, Benson and Moorhead said they were reviewing the existing footage and looking to prior Daredevil content, including the Netflix series, to inform the foundation of their direction.[49] They said they were fans of Miller's "Born Again" run, and Benson said he was a fan of Daredevil as a child despite not being "a huge comic book guy".[50]

A lot of the material that we shot pre-strike is brilliant and is still in the show and works really well. There were just some complicated factors around what we had been tasked to do and what we were discovering was and wasn't working... Credit to Marvel that they looked at the episodes and could acknowledge that we could still do better, and that we maybe needed to go in a slightly different direction... Where we ended up felt really good.

–Charlie Cox answering a question at Fan Expo Chicago in August 2024 about the differences in the series before and after the creative overhaul[51]

Ahead of filming restarting in January 2024, Born Again was reported to have a lower episode count than the 18 episodes originally announced,[52] though it was also reported to be "one big 18-episode limited series" with nine-episode halves that were not being called seasons for contractual reasons.[9] D'Onofrio said the number of episodes kept "fluctuating".[53] By that time, Scardapane had written a new pilot episode and two additional episodes for the first half of the series.[9] Cox confirmed in May 2024 that nine episodes had been filmed.[54] In August, Feige referred to the initial episodes as a first season and confirmed that a second season was planned.[1][55] Cuesta, Nachmanoff, and Boyd were re-confirmed to be credited directors for the first season.[5] Later that month, Cox said a majority of the material filmed before the overhaul would still be in the new version.[51] In October, D'Onofrio said he and others who worked on the previous version of the series were pleased with the new iteration.[56]

Executive producers for the series include Marvel Studios' Feige, Louis D'Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, Sana Amanat, and Gary, alongside Scardapane, Ord, Corman, Benson, and Moorhead.[18] Scardapane, Ord, and Corman are credited as the creators of the series.[2] Rudd Simmons serves as a producer.[57] The series is being released under Marvel Studios' "Marvel Television" label.[58]

Writing

edit

Original writers for the season included Corman, Ord,[37] Grainne Godfree, Jill Blankenship,[59] Aisha Porter-Christie, David Feige, Devon Kliger, Thomas Wong, Zachary Reiter,[60] and Molly Nussbaum.[61] Cox said the initial take on the series was dark but not as gory as the Netflix series. He wanted to take what worked from Daredevil and broaden it for Born Again to appeal to a younger audience.[62] Feige said the studio was hoping to experiment with more episodic, "self-contained" episodes with the series, unlike some of their Phase Four series that had a larger story split across multiple episodes.[63] The series was described as a legal procedural.[47]

Following the series' creative overhaul, serialized elements were set to be added to the episodes.[8] Scardapane wrote the new pilot episode,[2][9] with Blakenship, David Feige, Godfree, and Wong continuing on with the series and receiving credit for the new, reworked episodes. They were joined by Jesse Wigutow and Heather Bellson,[2] along with Chantelle Wells, who previously worked on the Marvel Studios series Echo (2024).[64] D'Onofrio said Born Again would have a similar tone and feel to Echo.[65] Marvel Studios' head of streaming, television, and animation Brad Winderbaum said Born Again's further connections to the Netflix series after the overhaul were influenced by how Loki and the animated series X-Men '97 (2024–present) honored prior iterations of their characters to establish new storylines.[66] Elaborating on Born Again's connections to the Netflix series, the cast said the events of that series were part of their characters' histories and there were some new storylines that built on those. However, they did not want to dwell too much on past events or alienate new viewers who did not watch the original. Cox praised Scardapane's balance between respecting the Netflix series and not relying on that history too much. Jon Bernthal added that any large diversions to the characters from the past were done intentionally and for a reason, not simply for the sake of trying a different idea.[67]

Despite using the Born Again subtitle, the series does not directly adapt that storyline or others from the comics.[68] It sees Fisk running for mayor of New York City after learning of the need for a strong candidate in the post-credits scene of Echo; this follows a late 2010s storyline from the comics in which Fisk becomes mayor that concluded with the "Devil's Reign" (2021–2022) event.[12][13][69] Winderbaum said the relationship between Murdock and Fisk would evolve from the Netflix series to be a "game of politics" rather than just trying to kill each other.[70]

Casting

edit

In June 2022, Variety reported that Cox and D'Onofrio were expected to return for the series.[71] Their casting was confirmed a month later at San Diego Comic-Con.[11] Cox was notified by Marvel Studios in early 2022 that they were looking to feature the character in another project following his appearances in No Way Home and the Disney+ series She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (2022), and learned that it was Born Again shortly before the series was formally announced at Comic-Con.[42] In December, Michael Gandolfini,[72] Margarita Levieva, and Sandrine Holt were cast in major roles.[17] Deadline Hollywood reported that Gandolfini was portraying "an ambitious guy from Staten Island" named Liam,[72] and that Levieva and Holt were playing love interests for Cox and D'Onofrio;[17] Holt was cast as Vanessa Marianna-Fisk,[6] replacing Ayelet Zurer from the original series.[23]

Nikki M. James joined the cast by January 2023.[73] In March, Jon Bernthal was revealed to be reprising his role of Frank Castle / Punisher from Daredevil and The Punisher in Born Again.[24][74] Additional cast members from Daredevil, such as Deborah Ann Woll (who played Karen Page) and Elden Henson (Foggy Nelson), were not expected to return, and it was unclear if their characters would appear in Born Again.[24] Henson, however, was planned to make a cameo appearance in the first episode as a way to "end the link between [Daredevil and Born Again] and give the old fans closure".[75] Michael Gaston and Arty Froushan were also part of the cast,[6][76] with Froushan in a major role that was reported to be an associate of Fisk's named Harry.[76] Set photos the following month indicated that Harris Yulin was part of the cast.[34] Clark Johnson was revealed to be cast in a recurring role in May, reported to be named Cherry.[21] In September 2023, a United States Copyright Office filing for the series listed several roles: Levieva as Heather Glenn, Gandolfini as Daniel Blade, James as Kirsten McDuffie, Johnson as Cherry, Froushan as Buck Cashman, Genneya Walton as BB Urich, and Zabryna Guevara as Sheila Rivera.[15][77] With the death of Kamar de los Reyes in December 2023, he was revealed to have a significant role in the series,[31] subsequently confirmed to be the character Hector Ayala / White Tiger.[32]

By January 2024, following the creative overhaul, Woll and Henson were set to reprise their roles as Page and Nelson,[10][9] and Wilson Bethel was set to reprise his role as Benjamin "Dex" Poindexter from Daredevil,[27] reportedly for three episodes.[28] It was initially unclear if any of the new Born Again cast members would be retained,[77] though Levieva,[16] Gandolfini,[22] and Froushan were soon reaffirmed to be part of the cast through set photos.[20] In February, Walton's character was reported to have a connection to one from the Netflix series.[19] Set photos reaffirmed Bernthal's inclusion that April, while also revealing that Jeremy Earl had been cast as Cole North.[25][29] Lou Taylor Pucci also joined the cast,[33] and set photos revealed that Zurer would now be reprising her role as Marianna-Fisk for the series.[23] In August, Mohan Kapur was revealed to be reprising his role as Yusuf Khan from the MCU series Ms. Marvel (2022) and its follow-up film The Marvels (2023).[30] At that time, Cox teased the appearance of additional MCU characters in Born Again for cameo appearances that he described as "fun, small moments of collision, but nothing major".[78]

Design

edit

Emily Gunshor serves as the costume designer for the series,[79] while Michael Shaw serves as the production designer.[80] Marvel Studios' head of visual development Ryan Meinerding once again designed the Daredevil suit for Born Again, after doing so for the Netflix series. The suit in Born Again is red with black detailing and was described as being less "shiny" than the suit in the Netflix series.[81] At least five different Daredevil cowls are featured in the series, including an all-white version based on the one in Daredevil vol. 8 (2023), the yellow cowl used in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, and several red cowls.[32][81]

Filming

edit
 
Picketers participating in the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike on May 10, 2023, at the series' set.[82] This and other picketing resulted in production being suspended on June 14 until after the strike's conclusion.[83]

Principal photography began on March 6, 2023, in New York,[84] under the working title Out the Kitchen.[85] Cuesta directed the first episode of the series,[6] with Nachmanoff, Johnson, and Boyd also directing episodes.[7][21][5] Pedro Gómez Millán and Hillary Spera served as cinematographers.[57][86] Filming took place in Yonkers outside the city mayor's office from March 7 through March 10.[87] The production then moved to New York City, filming in Harlem, Manhattan, on March 13 and 14,[88][89] and in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and at the Manhattan Municipal Building on March 15;[90][91] Williamsburg was previously used as a shooting location for Daredevil.[90] Filming took place at the New York County Courthouse on March 17.[92]

Soundstage work occurred at Silvercup Studios East in Queens.[93] Filming was set to take place at Silvercup East on May 8, when picketers participating in the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike prevented filming from occurring. Production was planned to resume the following day. Because of the strike, Corman and Ord were unable to be on set.[93] After further picketing on May 10 at the series' set in Brooklyn once again shut down filming, production was paused for the remainder of the week.[82] Additional filming shutdowns because of picketing occurred in early-to-mid June at Silvercup East,[94][95] before production was suspended until after the strike's conclusion on June 14.[83] Filming was originally expected to last for eight months.[93]

Following the series' creative overhaul, Benson and Moorhead were set to direct the new episodes,[8] and Philip Silvera was hired as stunt coordinator and second unit director after previously working on the Netflix series. Filming resumed on January 22, 2024,[52] with Spera serving as cinematographer on the new pilot episode.[3] Props from the Netflix series were brought back for a scene where the characters reminisce about their pasts.[67] Set photos at the end of the month saw Cox, Henson, and Woll filming scenes,[96] as well as a person in a costume resembling the comic book character White Tiger,[97] later revealed to be the Hector Ayala version.[32] Set graffiti of Fisk was attributed to an artist named Muse,[98] and the comic book character Muse was later confirmed to be appearing.[32] In early April 2024, Bernthal and Cox filmed scenes in Brooklyn,[25] ahead of a filming wrap party on April 5.[99] Zurer and D'Onofrio filmed scenes in New York shortly after the wrap party.[100] In mid-May, Cox and D'Onofrio said filming had been completed three or four weeks earlier, and nine episodes had been filmed.[54][101] Winderbaum believed the series had Marvel Studios' "most brutal [visceral] action", saying it "packs a lot of power",[102] with Cox teasing that Born Again would include fight sequences that were filmed in a single take, similar to those previously depicted in Daredevil.[103]

Editing

edit

Editors for the series include Cedric Nairn-Smith,[104] Melissa Lawson Cheung,[105] and Stephanie Filo.[106] Nairn-Smith previously worked on the Marvel Studios series Moon Knight and Ironheart (2025),[104] while Cheung previously worked on Secret Invasion (2023) and The Marvels (2023).[105]

Music

edit

In July 2024, the Newton Brothers were revealed to be composing music for the series. They previously composed the score for X-Men '97.[107] The pair expressed their love for the Daredevil comics and for John Paesano's main theme from the original Netflix series; Paesano's theme was briefly used for Daredevil's appearance in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law.[108]

Marketing

edit

Cox and D'Onofrio promoted the series at Disney's May 2024 upfront presentation, where the release month was announced and the first trailer was shown.[109][110] The pair again promoted the series and showed a trailer that August, at Disney's D23 convention, with Feige, Bernthal, Woll, and Henson.[1] Writers at Deadline Hollywood and TheWrap all felt the D23 trailer was more cinematic than the Netflix series and more mature than most Disney+ series. They also compared a confrontation between Murdock and Fisk in the trailer to the crime film Heat (1995).[1][30] Following online leaks of the D23 footage, Marvel released an official look at Daredevil in his red costume within their video celebrating the company's 85th anniversary.[111]

Release

edit

Daredevil: Born Again is scheduled to premiere on Disney+ on March 4, 2025,[4] with the first season consisting of nine episodes.[55] A filing for the first episode with the United States Copyright Office indicated an approximate release in January 2025.[15] The series was originally scheduled to debut in early 2024,[41] but was removed from Marvel Studios' release schedule in September 2023, because filming had not yet been completed amid the then-ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.[112] In May 2024, the series was confirmed to be releasing in March 2025.[113] It is set to be part of Phase Five of the MCU,[41] and is being released under Marvel Studios' "Marvel Television" label.[58]
