DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN Has Only Finished Shooting Its First 9 Episodes, Not The Second Half

It's been confirmed today that Daredevil: Born Again has wrapped shooting on its first 9 episodes and not the entire 18-episode series, suggesting there's still more to come from the Daredevil revival...

Earlier this week, the news broke that Daredevil: Born Again had wrapped filming. Shooting started last year, only to be paused when Marvel Studios decided to fire the creative team and overhaul a series which seemingly wasn't working. 

Some footage and ideas will make it into the new version, though we're unlikely to ever know what the previous version of this Daredevil follow-up looked like. However, based on what we've heard, Foggy Nelson, Karen Page, and Bullseye were absent, as was the Man Without Fear's costume for much of the revival. 

In recent months, we've been treated to plenty of set photos and footage, showcasing everyone from White Tiger to The Punisher.

More of those are likely somewhere on the horizon, though, as Daredevil: Born Again stunt coordinator Philip J. Silvera has confirmed they've wrapped on episodes 1 - 9, not the entire 18-episode series. 

This appears to confirm reports that the show is being split into two separate seasons and lines up with what we've been hearing. Right now, the expectation is that Daredevil: Born Again "season 1" will tie up Daredevil's loose ends before "season 2" tells its own story, potentially leading directly into Spider-Man 4 (which has yet to be decided).

More photos from the final day of shooting have also found their way online:

The cast of Daredevil: Born Again includes Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock/Daredevil, Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk/Kingpin, Elden Henson as Foggy Nelson, Deborah Ann Woll as Karen Page, Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle/The Punisher, Wilson Bethel as Bullseye, and Sandrine Holt as Vanessa Fisk.

Michael Gandolfini, Margarita Levieva, Nikki M. James, Michael Gaston, Arty Froushan, Clark Johnson, Lou Taylor Pucci, and Hunter Doohan have all been cast in undisclosed roles, though we believe the latter is playing Muse.

Daredevil: Born Again will likely premiere on Disney+ in 2025/2026.

Why are we hearing from this from a twitter scooper though and not they guy himself? Until then I'm treating this as a rumour (which it should've said in the title imo).

And I hope it's not 9 30-minute episodes, as every 9 episode Disney show has been so far. It's over before it has begun. Rather just see 9 full hour episodes instead of 18 half hour ones

@bkmeijer1 - I wonder if the 30 minute thing for the most part is a budget reason or not?.

Anyway , that image of DD and Punisher is from the stunt coordinators social media account and it says there the first half has wrapped filming.

@TheVisionary25 - I must've missed that social media post then.

Don't think it's a budget thing though. Even the 6 episode shows are around 45 minutes on average, so either way it's only 4.5 hours of television. Which is not a lot, considering the 100 million+ budget these shows have

@bkmeijer1 - possibly

Hopefully it works out for the best.

@TheVisionary25 - yeah. Do hope they start shooting Part 2 soon though then, although I can imagine it's some time away given how many projects are already in development

@bkmeijer1 - apparently it might be this fall

If they need the summer to over what they have shot or polish up the scripts for the second half then I’m cool with it

@TheVisionary25 - that could be it. Just wonder if it's gonna conflict with any other projects Marvel Studios is working on. They have a lot in development or already close to finishing, but pretty much no release windows set in stone.

Wouldn't it be crazy if they killed him at the end, Shadowland style and we don't get t see him again until Secret Wars. Y'know, take him off the board before Avengers 5?

I just watched a video of them shooting some fight scenes and I’m thrilled to know that bullseye is back!! Love this character and can’t wait to see him, punisher, daredevil, kingpin kick ass!

Take your time, do it right.

Despite what some people say, the MCU really need to up their game quality-wise.

@Fogs - it's ridiculous people are still denying the state the mcu is in.

Only one phase 5 project wasn't a failure, guardians 3. And even then it barely broke even.

I never once suspected they were done with all of them, especially since it was already announced they were going to do two 9-episode seasons (or whatever).

I don’t hate it. Take your time.

Then that means the show's gonna be fire.

Punisher already shows up in the first half, nice.

I think they filmed all the action sequences first, and the second half will be the courtroom, office drama and funerals later. The second half will be easier, maybe. They’ll still have pick-ups and have to film those additional scenes they need after looking at what they filmed already in the editing stage.
