Charlie Cox reprises his role as Matt Murdock / Daredevil from Marvel's Netflix television series and prior Marvel Studios productions, with Vincent D'Onofrio, Jon Bernthal, Margarita Levieva, Michael Gandolfini, Genneya Walton, Arty Froushan, Deborah Ann Woll, Elden Henson, Wilson Bethel, Jeremy Earl, and Ayelet Zurer, also starring. Development of the series began by March 2022. Matt Corman and Chris Ord were hired as head writers by May, and gave the series an episodic structure and lighter tone than the Netflix series. Born Again was announced in July. Filming began in early March 2023 in New York, but was suspended in June due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike. Marvel Studios decided to overhaul the series by late September and released Corman, Ord, and the initial directors. Scardapane, Benson, and Moorhead were hired the following month, and the approach changed to be serialized and more directly connected to the Netflix series. Filming resumed in January 2024 and wrapped in April.
Daredevil: Born Again is scheduled to premiere on Disney+ in 2025, and is expected to consist of 18 episodes divided into nine-episode halves. It will be part of Phase Five of the MCU.
