Here’s What We Know
Earlier this week, The Hollywood Reporter broke the news that actor Jon Bernthal would reprise his role as Frank Castle/Punisher in the upcoming Disney+ series Daredevil: Born Again.
Since then, the internet has been abuzz. A lot has happened since Marvel Studios announced the series at San Diego Comic-Con in 2022, so here’s a quick recap of what we do know about the upcoming 18-episode series:
- Charlie Cox, Vincent D’Onofrio, and Jon Bernthal will reprise their roles (Matt Murdock/Daredevil, Wilson Fisk,/Kingpin, and Frank Castle/Punisher, respectively).
- Deborah Ann Woll and Elden Henson, who played Karen Page and Foggy Nelson, respectively, will not return to the series.
- Michael Gandolfini, Margarita Levieva, and Sandrine Holt are part of the cast in undisclosed roles.
- Christopher Brewster, who was Charlie Cox’s stunt double in the Netflix series and was part of those iconic one-shot fight sequences, was not asked to return.
- Filming for the series will start in Harlem, New York next week (March 13th, 2023).
- Veteran Covert Affairs writers Matt Corman and Chris Ord will be writing the series. Additionally, experienced lawyers and writers have also joined the writing staff.
- The series will not be rated R, making it more likely that it will be rated TV-14.
At this point, these are the major confirmed news about the series. Rumors have been swirling around the internet, including the potential return of Krysten Ritter’s Jessica Jones and Mike Colter’s Luke Cage. But at this point, they still remain rumors. But now that the series is in production, we expect that more details will be revealed and confirmed.
