Daredevil: Born Again will bring the Man Without Fear into the MCU after a couple of noteworthy cameos, but is it going to be a sequel to Netflix's three-season Daredevil?
Based on what we know so far, that's unlikely. At least one major character has already been recast, while it seems hard to believe Marvel Studios will be beholden to Marvel Television's creative decisions. Still, a lot of familiar faces are returning, and we're guessing Daredevil will inform this Disney+ series the same way Hulk laid the groundwork for The Incredible Hulk.
Two actors it's been reported will not be part of Daredevil: Born Again are Elden Henson's Foggy Nelson and Deborah Ann Woll's Karen Page.
However, one reliable insider claims Marvel Studios has now shot something Foggy-related for the series.
We're assuming that means Henson has reprised the role, though it's always possible the lawyer has been recast. It's a real shame to think Foggy might only cameo in Daredevil: Born Again, especially when he's always been such an important part of Matt Murdock's life on the page.
Then again, Matt being on his own could play right into The Kingpin's hands, especially if the future New York City Mayor is looking to ruin 'ol Hornhead's life!
As always, it's best to take a rumour like this with a pinch of salt, and while cameras are currently rolling on the MCU series, we don't anticipate getting any official details until Comic-Con or D23 at the soonest.
Daredevil: Born Again is expected to premiere on Disney+ in 2024.
