Marvel TV Boss Says Daredevil: Born Again Was Always Meant to End With Season 3, Despite Previously Suggesting Otherwise

Marvel Television head Brad Winderbaum disclosed that Daredevil: Born Again was always intended to conclude with Season 3, despite previously expressing otherwise. In an interview with The Brandon Davis Show, Winderbaum stated that the strategy was to conclude at Season 3, as the original Netflix series consisted of three seasons and Born Again was also planned as a trilogy.

He explained that the shows can be viewed as trade paperbacks or collections, similar to how comic books are organized. Charlie Cox, the actor who plays Daredevil, echoed this sentiment at New York Comic-Con, revealing that there was additional planning and emotional support for Season 3. The original Netflix series was abruptly terminated, catching the writers and cast off guard.

However, at a later point, the cast was informed that Born Again would serve as the finale. Winderbaum had previously mentioned plans to annualize the series, with new seasons debuting every March. Season 2 is scheduled to release next year, followed by Season 3 and potentially Season Infinity. Winderbaum expressed his belief in the rich potential for further storytelling in the Daredevil universe.

Despite the show ending with Season 3, the possibility of Daredevil returning in an upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe project remains uncertain. Actor Cox is unsure about his future with the character but encouraged fans to rally for his return through a "Save Daredevil" campaign.
