Daredevil: Born Again season 2 release date window and latest news

In addition to the confirmed second season, which has already started production, the series has also provided a relaunch for Jon Bernthal's the Punisher, who will be spinning off into a solo Disney+ special in the near future.

Suffice it to say, Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) has his work cut out for him. If you're excited to see more, we have good news - season 2 is officially coming our way. Read on for everything we know so far about Daredevil: Born Again season 2.

Daredevil: Born Again season 2 release date window

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

Showrunner Dario Scardapane took to social media to celebrate the release of the season 1 finale, but also revealed when fans could expect the return of the Marvel series.

"It’s all led up to this… Such a mix of emotions as we close out S1," penned Scardapane. "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."

So, fans have less than a year to wait until the second season.

Filming is already taking place on season 2, with production beginning in February 2025. It's expected to last until July 2025.

Who can we expect to return for Daredevil: Born Again season 2?

In summary, here's the reported cast of Daredevil: Born Again season 2 so far:

• Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock / Daredevil
• Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk / Kingpin
• Deborah Ann Woll as Karen Page
• Elden Henson as Franklin 'Foggy' Nelson
• Wilson Bethel as Benjamin 'Dex' Poindexter / Bullseye
• Genneya Walton as BB Urich
• Clark Johnson as Cherry
• Michael Gandolfini as Daniel Blake
• Matthew Lillard as TBC
• Lili Taylor as TBC
• Sydney Parra as TBC
• Annie Parisse as TBC
• James Armstrong as TBC
• Susan Varon as Josie

Daredevil: Born Again season 2 will see the return of Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio as superhero lawyer Matt Murdock and his crime boss nemesis Wilson Fisk.

Several other cast members are also reportedly returning for season 2, including Genneya Walton as journalist BB Urich, Clark Johnson as retired detective Cherry and Michael Gandolfini as Kingpin's loyal mentee Daniel Blake.

Deborah Ann Woll and Wilson Bethel, who debuted in the preceding Netflix series, are also listed in the season 2 cast, alongside Elden Henson as Foggy Nelson – which invites some major questions.

Matt Murdock's longtime best friend and business partner was, of course, gunned down in the season 1 premiere, so presumably his continued involvement in the series will be via flashbacks to happier times.

Cox has been seen filming alongside Bethel's Bullseye and sporting a new Daredevil costume too, while Woll has been seen as Karen wearing a red wig.

We also fully expect Ayelet Zurer to reprise her role as Foggy's killer Vanessa Fisk, given her survival of season 1 and firm alignment with husband Wilson.

In March 2025, two major new additions were announced for the Daredevil: Born Again cast, with Scream and Scooby Doo icon Matthew Lillard signing on alongside The Conjuring and Hemlock Grove alum Lili Taylor.

It appears that Jon Bernthal may not be reprising his role in Born Again season 2, but don't worry: the actor will lead a one-off special for Disney+ as his gritty and remorseless antihero Frank Castle aka the Punisher.

An actor we definitely won't be seeing after that grisly season 1 finale is Michael Gaston's Commissioner Gallo, who was gruesomely murdered by Kingpin after daring to oppose his corrupt rule.

Daredevil: Born Again season 2 plot speculation

There's no word yet on precisely what will happen in Daredevil: Born Again season 2, but naturally, the show will be dealing with all the fallout from the first season's dramatic finale.

Showrunner Scardapane previously hinted to RadioTimes.com that season 2 will pick up right after season 1.

He said of season 1: "The first couple of episodes really do set the table in a great way, but the last two take you to a place that sets up season 2. Season 1 is part one, season 2 is, without a doubt, part 2. A

"And I get goosebumps at the end of season 1. We tell the audience that something is coming in a way that is pretty exciting."

It seems that Wilson Fisk will still be attempting to tighten his grip on New York City as its mayor, with Deadline reporting that new cast addition Lili Taylor will be playing one of his political opponents.

The first season of Born Again brought Jon Bernthal's the Punisher back into mainline Marvel continuity – and fans have called for more characters from the Netflix era to join him, most notably Krysten Ritter's Jessica Jones and Mike Colter's Luke Cage.

Unfortunately, Ritter has previously played down rumours of her return to the role, acknowledging that she'd love the opportunity but has yet to be asked by any execs at Marvel Studios (via CBS).

As for the Punisher himself, he was last seen escaping from Fisk's captivity in the Born Again post-credits scene, although this may be setting up the character's one-off Disney+ special as opposed to a season 2 storyline.

In an interview with Variety, Kingpin actor Vincent D'Onofrio said that Frank Castle's ongoing war on crime is currently only a "small part" of the next season, suggesting that the bulk of his story is being saved for the aforementioned solo project.

D'Onofrio was also quizzed on whether Born Again season could take inspiration from a comic book storyline titled Shadowland, in which Matt Murdock dons a black suit, takes over The Hand and seemingly gives into his darkest tendencies.

"That’s a very good question. I don’t know if I can answer that question. But it’s a good one. You’re obviously following the story in a good way," the actor responded, cryptically.

How many episodes will Daredevil: Born Again consist of?

Daredevil: Born Again season 2 will consist of eight episodes - one fewer than season 1.
