Daredevil: Born Again Update Surely Makes 1 Defender"s Return Inevitable
One filming location for Daredevil: Born Again has sparked speculation that yet another character from Netflix's Defenders Saga will be returning to the MCU. Since the cancelation of Marvel Television's Netflix series', there's been excitement and anticipation about which characters from the street-level shows would make their way into the MCU proper. Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio were confirmed to be reprising their Netflix roles in Daredevil: Born Again, following cameo appearances in Spider-Man: No Way Home, Hawkeye, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, and the upcoming Echo series, and they are now joined by Jon Bernthal, who will return as Frank Castle, a.k.a. the Punisher.
Daredevil: Born Again started filming in New York City on March 6, 2023, under the working title Out the Kitchen, and is expected to continue until November to account for the massive 18-episode count. While Elden Henson and Deborah Ann Woll will be absent from Born Again, and other characters, including Daredevil's Vanessa Fisk, will be recast, many are wondering whether any of Netflix's Defenders will appear in the upcoming series. While Krysten Ritter has been rumored to be reprising her role of Jessica Jones, Daredevil: Born Again's new filming location has caused speculation that another hero could also be making an appearance in the series.
