The season 1 finale of Daredevil: Born Again is set to stream on Disney+ tomorrow night, and if you'd like some idea of what to expect without any big reveals, you'll find a spoiler-free preview below.
We won't be sharing any major details about this week's episode, but there will be full spoilers for last Tuesday's instalment, "Isle of Joy."
Last week, Matt Murdock discovered that it was Vanessa Fisk that hired Bullseye to kill Foggy Nelson before jumping in front of her husband, Mayor Wilson Fisk, and taking Dex's bullet through the chest. Meanwhile, BB Urich managed to convince Chief Gallo to help her bring the Kingpin down.
In the season finale, "Straight to Hell," a still recovering Man Without Fear joins forces with two old allies and attempts to put a stop to Kingpin's AVTF as Mayor Fisk fully reverts to Kingpin mode. The episode also contains an incredibly shocking moment of violence, which directors Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead teased in a recent interview.
“There is a moment in the finale that is extraordinarily shocking on a practical effects level, and is very, very, very violent — but also, as filmmakers, incredibly exciting,” said Benson. “You’ll know what I’m talking about [when you see it], and I can’t wait for people to understand why there’s a gleam in my eye [right now].”
Added Moorhead: “[The finale] is so brutally tragic…. A bonanza of bonkers visuals.”
Be sure to drop back tomorrow night after the episode airs for our full spoiler coverage.
