What defenders in season 2 of Daredevil Born Again?

Matt Murdock will have to call reinforcements to face the Caïd. Apart from Karen Page and Punisher, who will answer the call? The showrunner says more.

Season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again is currently filming in the streets of New York, and after the uncompromising final broadcast last week on Disney Plus, one wonders if former heroes of Netflix will make their return alongside Charlie Cox and Jon Bernthal.

Because the Punish should, of course, resume his fight alongside Daredevil In season 2: “We make you understand in the post-generic scene that Frank will not stay locked up for a long time“, Entertainment Weekly the Dario Scardapane show with Entertainment Weekly. “This scene arrived late enough in the process, but it quickly became obvious to us that it was the best thing to do, both to tell the story of Daredevil and to start what awaits Frank and the Punisher afterwards …”

But who will accompany them in the war against Caid? Because at the end of season 1, Matt gathered his troops at the Josie bar, saying that he wanted to bring an army together to overthrow Fisk. Inevitably, names appear immediately: Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Danny Rand … Are these characters in the plans of season 2?

“Without saying too much, we can say that when we work in what I call the Helll’s Kitchen corner of the MCU, these iconic characters are necessarily in our heads. What I try to say is that we want to bring people back, relations, figures from the past of Matt – because they serve history. Especially in an intrigue where Fisk has taken control of the city. So yes, there will be people, vigilantes, superheroes involved.

The showrunner explains that their presence will have “Integrate naturally into the story. Who comes back, and why it should be justified. So to answer simply: yes, the characters you have mentioned are clearly in our mind, to me and the whole team. How will it materialize? It is both very complex to write and it is a well -kept secret. I am deliberately mysterious, but of course it is in our heads!“”

At least, we know that Karen Page will be back. But what place will it have?

“I said it, repeated, and I will continue to shout it on all the roofs: Karen Page is the heart and soul of the Matt Murdock universe. And it is even more true now that Foggy is no longer part of this trio. At the end of the season, it is she who says to him: ‘You must be anger, but also mercy. You must be there for your city.’ It is essential, especially in this dangerous period that New York is going through. So it is a centerpiece of what is happening. “

Season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again will arrive in March 2026 on Disney Plus.
