Actor Charlie Cox, who portrayed the titular superhero on Marvel’s Daredevil series on Netflix, reportedly dished on Season 2 of Daredevil (subtitled Born Again) at Galaxy Con this past weekend, revealing some previously unknown details about the next season of the series, which is tentatively set to start streaming on D+ in March 2025.
Cox reported that he will be at D23 later this year to promote the 9-episode series and that the second season will start shooting soon. In the meantime, he noted that meanwhile, he is reading every comic run of Daredevil in preparation for his role. Perhaps the most interesting information Cox shared was that the second season was originally supposed to be a separate entity from the original Netflix series.

"Elden [Henson] wasn't invited to join the show at first," they explain. "In the original version...they had written in a cameo in the first episode to end the link between the shows and give the old fans closure but they scrapped that in the new version."
The original plan was to kill off the characters, Foggy Nelson and Karen Page, in the first episode and introduce new characters to take their place as supporting characters. However, with the change in plans, the revival series will maintain the existing cast, with Cox and D’Onofrio reprising their roles as Daredevil and Kingpin, respectively, accompanied by fellow actors Jon Bernthal, Margarita Levieva, Michael Gandolfini, Genneya Walton, Arty Froushan, Deborah Ann Woll, Elden Henson, Wilson Bethel, Jeremy Earl, and Ayelet Zurer. Dario Scaradapane (The Punisher) is attached to the series as the showrunner.
Additional updates about the show are expected to be revealed at D23.
