In the mid-2010s, the gritty streets of Hell's Kitchen were vividly brought to life through three seasons of Daredevil, one of the most critically acclaimed Marvel series to date. Thus, it came as a shock when Netflix pulled the plug on the show in 2018. While Charlie Cox's portrayal of Daredevil has since graced lighter MCU projects like She-Hulk and Spider-Man: No Way Home, fans were not expecting a full-fledged return of the solo series. Yet, here we are, witnessing the rebirth of the hero in "Daredevil: Born Again." Despite its new home on the family-friendly Disney+, Marvel assures fans that this series will maintain the grit and action that defined its predecessor.

What Is Daredevil: Born Again About?
"Daredevil: Born Again" serves as a sequel to the 2015 Daredevil series, with most characters and plot points transitioning into the new show. While the exact placement within the MCU timeline remains unclear, since the original series, Charlie Cox's Daredevil has played significant roles in The Defenders, as well as cameo appearances in She-Hulk and Spider-Man: No Way Home. The series' primary antagonist, Wilson Fisk, also made an appearance in the Disney+ show Echo.
IGN recently explored Frank Miller's original "Born Again" comic arc, which inspired the new show's title, though the series won't be a direct adaptation. Here's Marvel's official synopsis for "Daredevil: Born Again":
Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox), a blind lawyer with heightened abilities, fights for justice through his bustling law firm, while former mob boss Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) pursues political power in New York. As their past identities resurface, both men are set on a collision course.
Will There Be a Season 2?
Originally planned as a 19-episode season, "Daredevil: Born Again" has been split into two due to the demands of the streaming era. The first season consists of nine episodes, with the second season set to feature the remaining nine episodes of the original arc. There's no confirmed release date yet for the second season on Disney+.
What About the Rest of 'The Defenders'?
Daredevil was a key part of The Defenders, which included a single season following Daredevil, as well as the Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist series. With Daredevil's return, there's potential for other Defenders to make a comeback. Marvel's head of streaming, television, and animation has mentioned to Entertainment Weekly that they are "exploring" this possibility.
