“Daredevil: Born Again” Trailer- Matt Murdock and Kingpin Bring Brutal Chaos Back to the MCU
The highly anticipated trailer for Daredevil: Born Again has officially dropped, offering fans their first glimpse of the gritty, street-level Marvel series coming to Disney+ in March. The series will reintroduce Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock, the blind lawyer who moonlights as the vigilante Daredevil. Fans were given cryptic hints leading up to the trailer release, with Marvel sharing an Instagram Story featuring the words “Marvel Daredevil” and a mysterious time of “7 AM PT.”
This served as the countdown to the trailer’s debut, which had been delayed previously due to the devastating fires in Los Angeles. Despite the delays, the trailer was released as anticipated, drawing excitement from both longtime fans of the original Netflix series and newcomers to the MCU.
Daredevil: Born Again marks the official return of Charlie Cox’s Matt Murdock after his appearances in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (2022) and Spider-Man: No Way Home. It will also be the first full-fledged TV series featuring Cox’s Daredevil since the conclusion of the Netflix show’s third season. The series brings back several characters from the original Netflix series, including Vincent D’Onofrio as the notorious mob boss Wilson Fisk, also known as Kingpin, and Jon Bernthal as the Punisher, a character who shares a complicated history with Daredevil.
The return of these familiar faces has heightened anticipation for the series, and fans are eager to see how these characters’ storylines evolve in the broader MCU.
According to the logline for Daredevil: Born Again, the story follows Matt Murdock as a blind lawyer with heightened senses, fighting for justice through his law firm while facing off against Wilson Fisk, who is now pursuing a career in politics.
As their past identities start to resurface, the two men find themselves heading toward a confrontation that seems inevitable. The series promises a blend of legal drama and superhero action, with a focus on the personal and moral struggles of its characters, especially as they navigate the corrupt world of New York City.

The show features a stellar cast that includes Deborah Ann Woll and Elden Henson reprising their roles as Karen Page and Foggy Nelson, respectively. Additionally, Ayelet Zurer returns as Vanessa Marianna, Fisk’s wife, and Wilson Bethel is back as Benjamin Poindexter, who, in the previous season of Daredevil, was introduced as the deadly assassin known as Bullseye.
Fans are particularly curious about Bullseye’s role in this new series, especially considering the character’s tragic and complex backstory, which was fleshed out in Daredevil season three.
Alongside the returning actors, the series introduces new talent to the MCU. Michael Gandolfini, Margarita Levieva, and Jeremy Earl are among the fresh faces joining the show, adding intrigue and excitement for how their characters will fit into the established universe of Daredevil and the larger MCU. The series is produced by showrunner Dario Scardapane, who also serves as an executive producer alongside Marvel Studios’ Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, and others.
The creative team behind the series is also impressive, with episodes directed by Michael Cuesta, Jeffrey Nachmanoff, David Boyd, and Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead, the latter duo known for their work on Moon Knight. Their unique approach to storytelling and direction is expected to bring a fresh energy to the series, while still staying true to the darker, more grounded tone that made the original Netflix show a hit.
One of the more intriguing developments in Daredevil: Born Again is the continuation of Bullseye’s arc. The character, introduced in the third season of the Netflix series, was reinvented with a deeper, more tragic backstory that provided more substance than his original comic book version. It will be interesting to see how Bullseye’s character evolves in this new series and what role he will play in the larger conflict between Daredevil and Kingpin.
Another notable addition to the show’s roster of villains is Muse, a relatively recent addition to Daredevil’s rogue gallery. Created by Charles Soule and Ron Garney in 2016, Muse has quickly gained notoriety as one of the more dangerous adversaries Daredevil has faced. His presence in the series is bound to add an intriguing new layer to the show’s already complex array of characters and conflicts.
With the release of the Daredevil: Born Again trailer, fans can now look forward to what promises to be an exciting and action-packed series. As the story unfolds, viewers will witness the return of beloved characters, the introduction of new faces, and the continuation of one of Marvel’s most iconic street-level heroes’ journey.
