The new trailer forDaredevil: Born Againis here, featuring some major reveals for the upcoming new Marvel series. Set to premiere in March,Daredevil: Born Againwill be a continuation of the popular MCU-set Netflix series starring Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock aka Daredevil and Vincent D’onofrio as Wilson Fisk. The new show will also follow up on both characters' previousMCUappearances in projects such asSpider-Man: No Way Home, Hawkeye,She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, andEcho.
In the new trailer forDaredevil: Born Again, rivals Murdock and Fisk are shown meeting at a diner. Both recognize the others' recent accomplishments and also confirm that they hadn’t crossed paths in some time. The trailer then kicks into high-gear with the reveal that new threats are coming to New York City alongside some pretty major status quo changes and some pretty intense action sequences.To that end, here are 15 of the biggest reveals we found in the new trailer forDaredevil: Born Again.
15Wilson Fisk Is Mayor of New York City
A Major Status Quo Change
The trailer confirms that Wilson Fisk has indeed become the mayor-elect of New York City, as was teased at the end ofMarvel’s Echo. As such, Matt Murdock tells Fisk that he can’t help but shake the feeling that the former Kingpin is somehow “gaming the system”. This is more than likely true, as many have theorized thatMayor Fisk will attempt to outlaw all vigilantes in New York for his own benefitand criminal enterprises.
14Matt Murdock Has Retired As Daredevil
“A Line Was Crossed”
Fisk questions why Murdock stopped being a vigilante.Murdock confirms “a line was crossed” as a shot reveals his mask dropping from a rooftopwhere multiple emergency vehicles can be seen below. It’s important to note that Josie’s diner can be seen below, the bar Matt Murdock and his friend frequented in the originalDaredevilseries on Netflix. As a result,it seems as though Daredevil has been retired for quite some time before the start of this new series.
13Karen Page and Foggy Nelson Return
Matt Murdock’s Friends and Partners
Elden Henson’s Foggy Nelson and Deborah Ann Woll’s Karen Page return alongside Cox’s Daredevil in the new trailer, Matt Murdock’s closest friends and partners from the original Netflix series. Prior to the show being reworked and largely reshot, Henson and Woll were not part of the show’s cast. As such, it’s very exciting to see them with Cox’s Matt Murdock again.
12When Daredevil: Born Again Takes Place on the MCU Timeline
It Looks Like 2026
Daredevil: Born Againfeatures shots of Times Square at New Year’s. Seeing as howHawkeyetook place at Christmas in 2024 andEchotook place in 2025,it stands to reason that Fisk was elected in November 2025 and that the present-day ofDaredevil: Born Againwill largely be set in 2026. That said, it does seem as though the new MCU series will feature some time jumps, if only to explain more of the events that transpired between Netflix’sDaredevilseason 3 andDaredevil: Born Again.
11Bullseye Returns
(And He’s Walking)
Wilson Bethel’s Benjamin Poindexter aka Bullseye returns in the newDaredevil: Born Againtrailer as well. He’s also shown walking, which is a big deal consideringBullseye was left paralyzed by Fisk at the end ofDaredevilseason 3, and the series ended with a final scene of Bullseye undergoing experimental spinal surgery by one Doctor Oyama. In the comics, Bullseye had a similar experimental operation by Oyama involving adamantium. As such, the same could also be true in the MCU, considering adamantium will make its debut inCaptain America: Brave New Worldwhich releases only a couple weeks beforeDaredevil: Born Again.
10Daredevil Has A New Love Interest
Played by Margarita Levieva
While currently unnamed,it looks as though Matt Murdock has a new love interest played by Margarita Levieva. Levieva recently played Mother Koril in theStar WarsseriesThe Acolyte.As far as who she might be playing inDaredevil: Born Again, it’s possible she could be playing classic Daredevil love-interests from the comics such as Kirsten McDuffie, though there have been some rumors that she’ll be playing Heather Glenn.
9Muse Emerges As A Major New York Threat
A Dark Villain From The Comics
New York looks to be under attack by Muse, a street artist/serial killer who paints using his victims' blood. A truly dark villain in theDaredevilcomics,Muse’s killing spree has connections to both Frank Castle’s Punisher and Wilson Fisk’s term as mayor. As such, it will be very exciting to see how the MCU adapts Muse and his history on the page for the screen.
8Vanessa and Fisk Are Reunited
(And Still Married)
Ayelet Zurer returns as Vanessa Fisk, the former Kingpin’s wife who married him at the end ofDaredevilseason 3. Seeing how their wedding was interrupted by Daredevil and Fisk’s arrest, it will be fascinating to see how the couple was able to reunite. Likewise, the painting that first brought them together inDaredevilseason 1 is shown in the background, including the blood stains from whenDaredevil stopped himself from nearly beating Fisk to death at the end ofDaredevilseason 3.
7Frank Castle’s Punisher Returns
(Is He Friend or Foe?)
Jon Bernthal’s Frank Castle aka Punisher is shown in the trailer, seen holding a hatchet and threatening Matt Mudock. At the moment, it’s unclear if The Punisher and Daredevil will be friends or enemies in this new series, though they did end up briefly as allies the last time they saw each other at the end ofDaredevilseason 2. Bernthal’s return is very exciting,and it’s recently been teased that The Punisher may have a future in the MCUbeyondDaredevil: Born Again.
6First Look At The MCU’s White Tiger
Hector Ayala
The newDaredevil: Born Againprovides a first look as White Tiger in the MCU. Real name Hector Ayala, White Tiger is another New York-based vigilante who will seemingly get wrapped up in the new chaos that’s coming to New York City, the same chaos that will seemingly get Matt Murdock to on his iconic mask once more. Hector is also only the first White Tiger in Marvel Comics, as his sister Ava eventually takes on the mantle as well.
