Daredevil: Born Again Star Reveals Time Jump Between Netflix and Disney+ Shows

As a seasoned gamer who has witnessed the rise and fall of countless characters in the Marvel Universe, I can’t help but feel a sense of anticipation tinged with a touch of nostalgia when it comes to Daredevil: Born Again. Having followed the tumultuous journey of Matt Murdock, Wilson Fisk, and Bullseye, among others, over the years, I am genuinely intrigued by Wilson Bethel’s revelation about the time jump between the Netflix series and its Disney+ successor.

In a recent reveal, one of the stars from the upcoming series “Daredevil: Born Again” has confirmed that there will be a time leap from the end of the third season of “Daredevil” on Netflix to when the Disney+ show begins. The anticipated release date for “Daredevil: Born Again” is next spring, and it promises to reintroduce beloved Marvel street-level characters such as Matt Murdock, Wilson Fisk, Karen Page, Foggy Nelson, Punisher, and Bullseye. Wilson Bethel, who plays the villainous Bullseye, has shared fresh details about the time gap between the Netflix “Daredevil” series and its Disney+ sequel.

Actor Wilson Bethel, known for playing Bullseye, attended Fan Expo San Francisco, joined by Charlie Cox. In their conversation (as reported by Collider), they discussed their careers and upcoming project, Daredevil: Born Again. Bethel is reprising his role as Bullseye, a significant adversary of Daredevil in the comics. He hinted that roles he’s played since his initial stint as Bullseye have readied him for his Marvel Cinematic Universe comeback and how he’s incorporating those experiences into Daredevil: Born Again. Moreover, Bethel revealed a surprising detail – Daredevil: Born Again will involve a time leap.

Bethel noted that Charlie hinted at it earlier, but what’s intriguing is this: when a series spans multiple seasons and the characters age alongside each other as if in real life, and the writers are attentive to these changes, details like graying hair and wrinkles emerge. This, in theory, leads to character development, regardless of whether or not the show is currently airing. For instance, five years have passed since we last saw Daredevil, Bullseye, and other Marvel characters on screen.

In a somewhat intriguing development, it’s as if “Born Again” is taking a five-year leap, meaning that when the show resumes, it will be five years since we last saw it. It doesn’t start the day after; instead, it jumps ahead five years. This means that each character has lived through five years of life, filled with various twists and turns. Although not all these stories may be depicted on screen, there is a sense of added life experience, which I believe as an actor, provides an opportunity to incorporate personal growth and experiences over that time, making the characters seem a bit more seasoned or mature.
