DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN - It Doesn't Sound Like Karen Page Will Have A Very Big Role

We recently learned that both Karen Page and Foggy Nelson would return for Daredevil: Born Again, but if a new rumor is to be believed, the former won't have a very big role...

Though their involvement is yet to be confirmed, Elden Henson and Deborah Ann Woll are expected to reprise their respective roles as Foggy Nelson and Karen Page in Daredevil: Born Again, but fans of Netflix's Daredevil probably shouldn't expect to see too much of Matt Murdock's pals.

We recently learned that Wilson Bethel's returning Bullseye won't have a major part to play in the upcoming series, and Daniel Richtman has heard that Woll will also appear in just three episodes - though he's not sure about Henson.

Shortly after the strikes were resolved, it was announced that Marvel execs reviewed some footage from the show while filming was paused, and decided that a "significant creative reboot" was in order. Head writers Chris Ord and Matt Corman, along with directors for the remaining episodes, were let go, and Kevin Feige is said to have signed-off on a pretty major course-change.

This reportedly involved changing the series from a legal procedural to "something that aims to harken back to the gritty and violent tone of that first well-regarded series. It also reaffirms the show’s focus on more street-level heroics and less on heavy (and costly) visual effects."

Clearly, this overhaul was at least partially implemented in order to bring Born Again more in line with the events of the Netflix show, but if Karen (and possibly Foggy) will only be back for a few episodes, the assumption that this series will basically be "Daredevil season 4" may be premature.

Also, with Bullseye and Karen both appearing in the same amount of episodes, we'd say there's a decent chance the show will stick to the comic when it comes to Miss Page's fate!

Though we don't know if she'll show up in Born Again, Marvel is also said to be interested in doing more with Echo's Maya Lopez (Alaqua Cox) and is "already developing new ideas as it seeks to build out its street-level heroes."

What these ideas are remains to be seen, but with Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle returning along with Vincent D'Onofrio and Charlie Cox, we wouldn't be at all surprised if at least some of the other "DefenderVerse" heroes, such as Luke Cage and Jessica Jones, joined them down the line, potentially forming another Defenders-style team.

Last we heard, The Punisher writer Dario Scardapane had come aboard as the project's new showrunner, with Moon Knight helmers Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead on directing duties.

Born Again will see Matt Murdock/Daredevil (Cox) face-off against his old nemesis the Kingpin (D'Onofrio), who will most likely be running for mayor of NYC when the story gets underway.

The seres is not expected to run for the originally announced 18 episodes. A recent rumor claimed that the show would likely run for 9 (possibly 6) episodes before taking a mid-season break.

The upcoming Disney+ series doesn't have an official release date yet.

As long as it opens the door to see more of them in the future, I'm just glad that they're back.

@bobevanz - This pleases me. I was traveling for a family thing 2/29-3/3 and was afraid I wouldn’t be able to see it until the following weekend. 100% in for 2/25 though!

Karen is a great character, but if Bullseye heinously whacks her in some horrible way, I am okay with that.

@DocSpock - Hell I'd be fine if she gets horribly whacked by a bottle of Bullseye OR Heinz 😜.

@DocSpock - I just made ribs last night so it was (literally) fresh on my mind (I still have BBQ sauce around my cuticles and... other places 😉).

@StSteven -

We had Zydeco Catfish & gumbo for dinner tonight.

And now you have me wanting BBQ tomorrow.

Woo Hoo!!!!

StSteven
StSteven - 1/24/2024, 9:31 PM
@DocSpock - You can do what we did last night: when it's too cold or late to grill ribs you can use a pressure cooker (like an Instant Pot). Very simple: last night I took a slab of baby back ribs, cut into 3 pieces, put them in the Instant Pot and dumped an entire bottle of BBQ sauce and an entire sliced onion in there, set it on high pressure for 25 minutes and viola! the meat is hanging off the bones.

The key for me (having 2 little kids) is using the right BBQ sauce. They don't like things that are spicy so I have to be careful. I have a collection of local TX BBQ sauces that I'm working my way through. The one I used last night (called "Fire & Smoke") worked well because they gobbled that stuff right down. 😊

Excellent! You have some very diverse food tastes. As discussed, we love many different cuisines & variations. Cajun, BBQ, & Thai are my top favorites though.

@StSteven - I just finished Christmas dinner. These slow cookers are insane!

StSteven - 1/25/2024, 10:35 PM
@DocSpock - Yeah, I'm kind of all over the place. I grew up in the normal Midwestern type of "meat and potatoes" food and have branched out extensively over the years. SO much good stuff across the globe. Cajun is definitely one of my favorites as well (I make my one gumbo, Jambayala, jerk-seasoned stuff, etc.). We have a great Latin cuisine restaurant by us if you ever make it down here (actually I think it's a chain) called "Gloria's Latin Cuisine" that has a great variety of South American dishes. I also like trying "fusion" types of food when I can. Like there's a new fusion taco place by us called "The Dream Tacos" that is Mexican fusion that I HAVE to try sooner vs. later. They have stuff like Indian tacos, Beef Wellington tacos, Philly cheese steak tacos, Cambodian-Vietnamese tacos, Frickin spaghetti and meatballs tacos?!? Dude! Check out their menu at: thedreamtacos.com

@ObserverIO - Haha! Yeah they may be slow, but it's worth the wait. I'll bet that's some damn good Christmas dinner! Once you're done with that you need to get started on next Christmas. You only have 11 months left, so chop chop! 😉

DocSpock - 1/25/2024, 11:34 PM
@StSteven -

I will check out Dream Tacos.

I love Gloria's and have been eating there since the first one was opened in Oak Cliff nearly 40 years ago. The founder's nephew worked for me for over 20 years, 15 at a large company & 5 years as my Manager when I opened my own business until I retired.

@DocSpock - Well then I guess you know a thing or two about Gloria's Touché good sir!

Yeah, my wife and I get all these deals on food through Uber Eats, Postmates, Grubhub, etc. (don't ask me how, that's her department - I just do as I'm told and don't ask questions 😉), so that gives us a chance to try some new places that we might be hesitant to try at full price. And with Stonebriar Center being 5 minutes away from us there's a seemingly never-ending list of places to try, which was how we ended up trying Gloria's. Every time we'd drive past it we'd be like "We need to try that place - I hear good things about it." and then we finally did for our anniversary last year. Definitely a good choice.

We used to go to Lawry's in Dallas by the Galleria for our anniversary before COVID (we're even in their rewards club). High time to revisit that place. Of course with 2 kids now and inflation it's probably going to cost upwards of $300, but DAMN is it worth it 😉.

@StSteven - We love that Dave & Busters. Big go to over the years for my kids, Grandkids, My wife's brothers' kids. Many birthday parties over the last 2 decades.

@DocSpock - I haven't been to D&B for quite a while and my kids have yet to discover it, as our local one is part of the Stonebriar Center mall and with my kids being 4 1/2 and 8, they have yet to discover the mall. I mean, prior to the pandemic when we only had our first kid my wife and I would go to the mall because the nearest AMC is also in the mall, and we'd bring our oldest and my wife's parents to go shopping while we were seeing the movie, but she doesn't really remember it. I try to avoid going anywhere near the mall because it's always absolutely nuts (especially on the weekends) and between all the teenagers and the fact that NO ONE seems to know how to drive around there (especially the teenagers) that place is a madhouse.

If I do have to go over there it's usually to get carry-out from Cheesecake Factory (which is right on top of the D&B) so it's just kids hanging out everywhere. Maybe I'm just being a cranky old man, but I'm definitely dreading the time when my daughters are going to want to go hang out at the mall *shudder shudder*. I'll just pretend that I'm agoraphobic so some other kids' parents can drive 😉.

@StSteven -

LOL! I will never escape D & B. My wife's side of the family has so many kids at all age levels from 1-32. They are an uptown blue blood baby factory. I do what I'm told and arrive nicely dressed where I am supposed to be. I entertain them and corrupt them when no adults are looking.

@DocSpock - Well the rest of my family is back up in Chicago and my wife only has her parents here from China, so we're not really beholden to anyone when it comes to birthday activities (although when it comes to the official birthday dinner we MUST have Chinese Lucky Noodles (not sure if you've ever had those before) or we will all be damned to the Chinese hell of 1000 deaths or some shit (or at least bad luck). Personally I'd rather have a good pizza (I'm Chicago style vs. NY personally), but the noodles are really good. If you've never had them, they're hard to describe... linguini topped with a sauce that includes shrimp, pork, tofu, wood ear (a Chinese fungus that grows on trees I believe), and all kinds of other shit. You'd know it f you've had it because for each bite of noodles (naturally you can't break the noodles when cooking them like we do with Italian noodles because that would effectively break your life in half) you are supposed to take a bit of Chinese cucumber and a nibble from a clove of garlic.

Anyhow, I'm considering at some point introducing my kids to Chucky Cheese (as there is one about 10 minutes away), but then I watched "Willy's Wonderland" and now I'm not so sure...

@JFerguson - The MCU slowly devolving into the DCEU and the DCU is slowly evolving into the Infinity Saga. There was a big glitch in the Matrix.
