As the recent massive behind-the-scenes creative shake-up begins to bear fruit, Marvel fans are regaining hope that the upcoming Disney Plus show, Daredevil: Born Again<\/em><\/a><\/strong>, might meet their expectations, set to barely reachable heights thanks to the undeniable quality of the Netflix original this new version is meant to expand upon.<\/p>\n

Netflix’s Daredevil <\/em>is one of the most beloved Marvel properties ever made, and its fans campaigned relentlessly to bring its cast and characters into the MCU fold after the birth of Disney Plus led to the show’s cancellation at the competing streaming service. <\/p>\n

Their prayers were met as Marvel announced a new Daredevil <\/em>show, produced under the Marvel Studios and Disney Plus banner and titled Daredevil: Born Again<\/em>. In the lead-up to what is probably the most hotly anticipated property in the MCU since No Way Home<\/em>, Marvel has sprinkled other productions with sights of the series leads Matt Murdock\/Daredevil (Charlie Cox) and Wilson Fisk\/Kingpin (Vincent D’Onofrio). And this is where things get interesting…<\/p>\n

How Daredevil: Born Again<\/em>‘s new leadership is making fans’ dreams come true<\/h2>\n

The early stages of Born Again<\/em> hinted at a story that maintained some aspects of its predecessor while not staying entirely truthful to its development, in line with the multiversal variants of characters we’ve been introduced to in the MCU for the past few years. Case in point, familiar characters were recast, while staples like Matt Murdock’s trusted companions, Foggy Nelson and Karen Page, were initially shunned from the new series altogether, and killed off off-screen. <\/p>\n

The backlash, of course, was swift<\/a>, leading Kevin Feige and Co. to reevaluate their plans for the project. A completely new team was appointed,<\/a> and the show went back to the drawing board. The Punisher<\/em> writer and executive producer Dario Scardapane was tapped as showrunner, while Moon Knight <\/em>and Loki <\/em>Season 2’s Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead came on board as directors. <\/p>\n

While credible reports like those from Variety<\/a><\/em> still make a point of clarifying that the new show “is not meant to be a continuation of the events from the Netflix shows,” new canon developments (more on that later), and recent casting rumors that Elden Henson, Deborah Ann Woll, and Wilson Bethel could be returning after all as Foggy, Karen, and Bullseye, respectively, seem to indicate otherwise. <\/p>\n

I actually have a feeling he will return. Seems like everything changed when the show got a new creative team. Shows got confirmed to be canon, next thing we know Foggy and Karen are coming back as well<\/p>\n
