Daredevil Will Return In New Disney+ Series

They’ve been hinting at it, but today they made it official. Marvel has announced a new Daredevil series is coming to Disney+ at an unspecified time.

They didn’t say who was playing, but it’s a bit obvious. Charlie Cox played the Man Without Fear in the 2015 Netflix series, and after the rights reverted to Disney, he showed up as Murdock again in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Vincent D’Onofrio was Kingpin in that series, and he came back in the same role on the Hawkeye series. So there’s little doubt it will be those guys once more. The question is…in what form?

Will this new Daredevil series be a continuation of the Netflix series, or will it establish its own continuity? If it’s the latter, it could get messy, as the Netflix show was meant to take place in the MCU even if it wasn’t allowed to explicitly use Avengers characters. If it’s the former, there’s no way Disney+ will let it get as gritty as the first show was (even if the first show is on Disney+ anyway), so there could be a tonal dissonance. Either way, someone on the Internet is going to complain.

Variety reports that Matt Corman and Chris Ord have been hired to shepherd the new Daredevil show into existence. Their previous work includes the USA series Covert Affairs and a few network shows that didn’t last as long. It sounds like the project is just now getting started, so don’t expect it in 2022…but you can expect She-Hulk, who got a full trailer earlier this week.
