Actor Charlie Cox is set to return as the blind vigilante Daredevil in Daredevil: Born Again, where he will face off against adversaries Kingpin and the Punisher.
Marvel Studios head Brad Winderbaum has revealed that the new movie would feature more intense scenes than ever and be filled with visceral and brutal actions. According to reports, the show has already been renewed for a second season.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Winderbaum stated, “Some of the most brutal action we have ever brought to the screen is coming in Daredevil: Born Again. It packs a lot of power and visceral action, to say the least.”
Despite the series moving to Disney+, the essence of Daredevil’s gritty nature will remain intact. Vincent D’Onofrio, who reprises his role as Kingpin, also hinted that the new series will push the boundaries further than the Netflix version.
