Marvel has confirmed that two characters believed to be dead will return in Daredevil: Born Again Season 2.
The new season drops on Disney+ on March 24. It once again follows Matt Murdock as he faces Wilson Fisk. But this time, the show looks back at the past.
James Wesley, played by Toby Leonard Moore, is returning. Wesley was Fisk’s trusted right-hand man in Season 1 of the original Netflix series. Karen Page shot him dead after he kidnapped her.
However, this is not a resurrection. The trailer shows Fisk in his old black suit without his Hawkeye scar. That strongly suggests Wesley appears in a flashback.
Foggy Nelson is also coming back. Elden Henson returns as Matt’s best friend. Foggy died in Episode 1 of Born Again after Bullseye shot him on Vanessa Fisk’s orders.
Some fans think Foggy could still be alive, like in the comics where he faked his death. But the footage so far points to another flashback, not a surprise survival.
Season 2 is clearly tying itself closely to the original Netflix series. Marvel is treating those older shows as full canon. This is not a reboot. It is a continuation.
The reunion does not stop there. Jessica Jones and Detective Brett Mahoney also return. Luke Cage star Mike Colter has even said he is open to coming back.
For longtime fans, this season looks like a full Netflix-era reunion. And many are happy to see these familiar faces again.
