Daredevil: Born Again season 2 release date speculation

Daredevil: Born Again season 2 is set to be released in March 2026.

The release window for the new episodes of the MCU show was confirmed by showrunner after the finale was made available on Disney Plus, saying: "It’s all led up to this… Such a mix of emotions as𝔍 we close out 𝓰S1. So grateful for the cast, crew and studio for their confidence and indulgence. Biggest of thanks to Sana, Brad, Kevin, Lou, Aaron, Justin, Charlie, Vincent, Deb, Jon and the whole mad circus. And yeah, Season 2 March 2026."

We knew it wasn't going to take too long to see Daredevil back on screen, as 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:filming is underway since March 2025. Even with the behind-the-scenes turmoil of the first season, it wrapped filming in April 2024 and debuted 11 months later. With the production pipeline now running smoothly, it seems like Daredevil: Born Again season 2 is on track to be released in Mar▨ch 2026, but we will keep an eye on any delays in production.

This would mean that the new season will arrive before 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Doomsday in May. An Untitled Marvel Movie is also slated for February, so that wou🌌ld slot in nicely between those two MCU projects.

In the meantime, Vincent D'Onofrio provided a spoilery first look ꦛat Dardevil: Born Again season 2, tea💜sing the return of a location from t♈he Netflix series – Fogwell's Gym. You can watch the video below:

) that Karen ꦅactor Deborah Ann Woll will a🍃ppear in season 2.

Surprisingly, Elden Henson, who played Foggy before being killed off during the first season's premiere, will also show up in some capacity. In April 2025, director Aaron Moorhead, who co-directed the final three episodes of Daredevil: Born Again season 1, addressed the fan theory saying that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Foggy's death was faked. "Dying very often does mean that you're actually dead," Moorhead said, but he also sent a cryptic message to fans: "I would love to tell you, 🗹however, Marvel will snipe me if I say anything else." We will have to wait to see how the character returns in season 2.

Vincent D'Onofrio is also part of tꦇhe Born Again season 2 cast, while we'd be shocked if Vanessa actor Ayelet Zurer and Punisher actor Jon Berntham aren't in the mix too. The same goes for Michael Gandolfini's slimy mayoral official Daniel Blake.

One character glimpsed so far during filming for season 2 is Bullseye (Wilson Bethel). The sharpshooter terrorized The Man Without Fear throughout the first season and appears to 😼be doing the same again here next time around – though we ant♔icipate the anti-vigilante task force won't be keen to see either Daredevil nor Bullseye roaming the streets.

The only confirmed newcomer to date is Matthew Lillard in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:an undisclosed role.

Krysten Ritter is 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:also returning as Jessica Jones.

Speaking at a Disney Upfront event, Ritter said, "It's so great to be back, returning to Jessica after three seasons and The Defenders and now joining the MCU. I'm so excited to bring back this iconic character, and without giving too much away, there is ✨much more in store for Jessica Jones. This is going to be an incredible season!"

The character, once part of Netflix's Defenders grou🏅p and that universe, hasn't been seen on our screens since 2019.

But that might not be all for the mini-Defenders reunion. Both Iron Fist actor Finn Jones and Luke Cage actor Mike Colter were recently in New York at the same time, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:leading to speculation that they are filming scenes for Daredevil: Born Again s💯eason 2.

Daredevil: Born Again season 2 story: how will it follow season 1?

Daredevil: Born Again season 2 has a lot to wrestle with now that the dust has settled on the fi𒊎rst season.

In the finale, it is revealed that Red Hook was part of Vanessa's grand plans to have a crime-laden freeport smack bang in th♏e middle of New York, the perfect place to continue her criminal enterprise.

A city-wide blackout also leads to civil unrest on the st♕reets, including looting and assaults. With the police losing their grip on the streets, Kingpin gets his own claw-like vice on proceedings – and crushes the skull of the police commissioner and declares martial law in New York.

With Karen back on the scene, Matt goes to bring the fight to the forces encamped in Red Hook, but soon realizes he w𝔉ill need to raise an army to do so and swiftly retreats. Frank Castle, however, isn't the retreating type – and goes in all-guns blazing. He is captured but, as 🌊shown in the post-credits scene, manages to make his escape.

The second season, then, will surely revolve around another Daredev🌳il and Kingpin head-to-head. In one corner, The Man Without Fear is setting up creating change from a grassroots level and inspiring New Yorkers to rise up. Kingpin, meanwhile, is set to do all he can to crush any resistance – inc💛luding any pesky vigilantes – underfoot.

Director Aaron Moorhead offered some early clues about the upcoming season following the season 1 finale, saying season 2 is a "resistance tale" against Mayo▨r Fisk. "The end of season 1 is a tragedy of some kind. And while it’s not exactly a full-blown stand-up-and-cheer moment as there’s very mixed emotions in those final seconds, you get the sense that there’s a building of a resistance. So that is the kernel of where season 2 is going to go. The board is completely set in which Mayor Fisk has now become Kingpin again, but with New York in his grasp, and then♛ there's this vigilante thing that now has to go completely underground. So that's where we start, and we're going to unfold all of that very, very quickly. It's a resistance tale."

One throughline for the second seasꦇon is that there will be "nonstop" action, perhaps an indicator that Daredevil will be in hard-hitting, bone-crunching fo❀rm next time out.

"The crew is crushing it, and the action is nonstop," producer Sana Amanat told . "The b🍸ackdrop is a little different. It’s still New York, but it’s a slightly different kind of New York. I’m very excited about the material we’ve been getting. I’ve been fangirling all week. We shot a really big sequence with Wilson Fisk this week, and I felt like a kid in a candy shop."

In an interview with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:GamesRadar+, Vanessa actor Aye꧑let Zurer teased that the second season would be "even more exciting and crazy."

It's also taking a step back in time, with Charlie Cox 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:teasing a flashback to 2015 (around the time Matt Murdock first donned the Daredevil suit)✅.

"Me and another character did a flashback scene. But we're flashing back to 2015 when we started the show. So I'm going back to a scene that I did shoot mysel꧋f. Makes me feel pretty old," Cox told . Could this be the first signs of a Foggy flashback?

When can we expect a Daredevil: Born Again season 2 trailer?

With cameras currently rolling, we perhaps shouldn't expect a Daredevil: Born Again season 2 trailer anytime soon. However, we predict a small behin🦩d-closed-doors teaser could be shown at either San Diego Comic-Con in July or at D23 in August.

The public will likely get their first glimpse ꦇfar later, potentially in the opening weeks of 2026 – which would match the first season's marketing rollout.

Will Daredevil: Born Again cross over into Avengers: Doomsday or Spider-Man 4?

It's a good question – and something Kingpin actor Vincent D'Onofrio has 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:at least partially addressed in a recent interview.

"The only thing I know is not positive. It's a very hard thing to do, for Marvel to use my character. It's a ver🤡y hard thing to do, because of ownership and stuff," D'Onofrio said on the when the topic of Kingpin appearing in MCU movies or Spider-Man 4 was approached.

He continued, "Right now, I’m only usable for television series. Different kinds of series, whatever it is, but not even a one-o﷽ff Fisk movie or anything like that, it’s all caught up in rights and stuff. I don’t know when that𝓰 would work out, or if it ever would work out at all, actually."

So, Kingpin might not be able to appear in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Spider-Man 4, but Daredevil is (presumably) fair game having b෴een part of the Spider-Man: No Way Home 𒐪cast.

Whispers around Avengers: Doomsday continue to do the rounds, with (澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:now-debunked) co🍌ncept art suggesting that the 2026 entry and 2027 follow-up Secret Wars will at least partially be inspired by Jonathan Hickman's Secret🤡 Wars comic book run.

There, Doctor Doom became God Emperor Doom, ruler of 'Battleworld', a fragmented universe comprising of variou🍒s nation states and territories – including Spider-World, The Monarchy of M and, yes, even Manhattan.

So, it stands to reason that Daredevil could appear as part of the Avengers: Doomsday cast, but he wasn't part of its 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:epic chairgeddon five-hour reveal. The more obvious outcome? Daredevil: Born Again season 2 takes place before Avengers: Doomsday, ﷽with any changes to the universe mentioned as part of future seasons or taking place simultaneously to the events of Doomsday or Secret Wars.
