Rosario Dawson Talks Night Nurse, Daredevil Season 2 and Punisher
Fans have to wait a while for Daredevil Season 2, but we’re getting some interesting insights into what we can expect for the second season of hit series. Two good bits were not only the inclusion of Punisher, but the return of Rosario Dawson’s Claire Temple aka Night Nurse, who was easily a standout in Season 1. Dawson got to chat with MTV News about her role going forward, her possible collaborations with other Marvel properties, and of course, the arrival of Punisher.
“Even just having Night Nurse and Claire Temple come together was already changing the Marvel Universe,” said Dawson. “So it just feels like, A) I finally get to join Marvel. I get to do it in a way that’s completely altering the universe, which is awesome. And then, B) I have no idea where it’s going to go, because here I was having a fling with Matt Murdock, and now Luke Cage is coming up, and Jessica Jones.”
“I have no idea how they’re wanting me to come back or in which way, shape or form,” Dawson said, “but it’s nice to know that I’ve got a character who does kind of string everyone together and bring all those worlds together.”
And what of Punisher? “That’s going to raise the stakes so much more, because Matt Murdock almost behaves like the Punisher in the first season,” said Dawson. “[Matt] crosses the line quite often, so it’s going to be really interesting to see how they differentiate them and where that goes.”
Clearly big things are going to happen in Daredevil Season 2, which arrives later next year on Netflix.
