Daredevil: Born Again is now filming in Yonkers, New York (you can check out some set videos here), and the Disney+ show's first director has only just been announced.
THR reports that Michael Cuesta, who has previously helmed pilots for the likes of Dexter and Homeland, is currently shooting the first episode. No word on whether he's been enlisted to direct any other instalments.
Charlie Cox (Matt Murdock), Vincent D'Onofrio (Wilson Fisk) and Jon Bernthal (Frank Castle) are all set to reprise their respective roles from the now defunct Netflix shows. New cast members include Michael Gandolfini, Margarita Levieva and Sandrine Holt.
Most of the new characters remain under wraps, but the trade has confirmed that Holt will play The Kingpin's wife, Vanessa Fisk.
The 18-episode epic will be loosely based on the '80s Marvel Comics series of the same name by Frank Miller and David Mazzuchelli, but is not expected to be an overly faithful adaptation. Despite some significant changes to the story, "Daredevil versus Wilson Fisk, aka the Kingpin, remains the focal point."
Matt Corman and Chris Ord are on board as writers and executive producers. No premiere date has been announced, but the show is expected to bow in the spring of 2024.
