“Daredevil: Born Again” Has Official Release Date as Matt Murdock Returns

Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk themselves—Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio, respectively—arrived at this past weekend’s New York Comic for Marvel’s Daredevil: Born Again panel. Marvel Studios officially announced that the long-awaited return of Murdock, Fisk, and co are arriving on Disney+ on March 4th, 2025.

Daredevil: Born Again will reunite Cox’s sight-impaired superhero and D’Onofrio’s brutal criminal super-boss Kingpin for the first time since they clashed back when Daredevil was a Netflix series from 2015 to 2018. Matt Murdock had a brief, quite funny cameo in Spider-Man: No Way Home and a meatier role in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, while D’Onofrio’s Kingpin has appeared in both Hawkeye and the spinoff series Echo.

In fact, Marvel’s upcoming Disney+ series will follow the grittier tone established in Echo, which was led by Alaqua Cox’s Maya Lopez and centered on her tortured past and her relationship with Kingpin. We already know that Born Again will see the return of one of the most brutal of all of Marvel’s antiheroes, Jon Bernthal’s The Punisher, as well as former Daredevil cast members Deborah Ann Woll as Karen Page, Wilson Bethel as Bullseye, and Elden Henson as Foggy Nelson.

Born Again is the first Marvel series on Disney+ to feature a showrunner (previous series were led by head writers and directors), with Dario Scardapane, a writer on the original The Punisher. The original Daredevil was gritty and often brutal, and in keeping with this change in tone, Marvel brought on fight and stunt coordinator Philip Silvera, a veteran of the original Netflix series, who will act as both stunt coordinator and second unit director for the new series. Loki directors Aaron Moorehead and Justin Benson were brought in to guide the show.
