Daredevil: Born Again Drops New Release Schedule

by

Marvel is opting for an unusual strategy in rolling out the episodes of Daredevil: Born Again. We’re just about two weeks away from the series premiere, which will bring back Marvel’s gritty street-level characters following their Netflix show cancellations. The entirety of March has been earmarked for Daredevil: Born Again on Netflix, as all episodes in the first season will air from start to finish throughout the month. Interestingly, Marvel is adopting a strategy similar to that used in other recent streaming series like Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man and Agatha All Along by frontloading the initial week and some later weeks.

As a cinephile eagerly awaiting new releases, I’m thrilled that Disney+ has unveiled its lineup for March 2025, featuring the highly anticipated series, “Daredevil: Born Again”. The first two episodes of this exhilarating show will premiere on Tuesday, March 4th, at 6pm PT. The third episode follows a week later on March 11th, and the fourth episode arrives on March 18th. The suspense builds as Episodes 5 and 6 debut concurrently on March 25th. However, since March concludes on a Monday, we’ll have to wait until April to learn when the remaining episodes of “Daredevil: Born Again”‘s inaugural season will stream on Disney+. In total, there are nine episodes, so we’re left guessing whether these final three (Episodes 7-9) will be released weekly or if the final week will feature a double episode.

Fans of Marvel shows have grown used to weekly premieres featuring multiple episodes instead of one at a time. This approach, where several episodes are released initially and then again later if not all are being released simultaneously, is common in streaming series. Both methods have advantages and disadvantages, but Disney has chosen this strategy for its Marvel and Star Wars productions. So, it’s likely that Episodes 2 and 6 will end on suspenseful cliffhangers, making fans of Daredevil eagerly wait a week until the next episode becomes available.

Excitement for the upcoming series “Daredevil: Born Again” has been steadily growing over the past few weeks, as new trailers emphasize the show’s intense violence, TV-MA rating, and a criminal vigilante operating under Mayor Wilson Fisk. With multiple seasons in development, there’s no need for fans to fret about the storylines being hastily wrapped up. The characters of Daredevil and his associates will continue to play significant roles within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, suggesting they won’t be disappearing anytime soon. It’s possible that additional characters from the DefendersVerse might make a comeback, such as Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and Jessica Jones.

Actor Charlie Cox, who plays Daredevil in “Daredevil: Born Again,” recently expressed optimism about the possibility of his character appearing in future Avengers movies or Spider-Man 4. In an interview with GQ, he stated that it seems more likely than ever before. He expressed interest in being part of an Avengers film or another Spider-Man project for two reasons: firstly, as a fan of the characters, he feels it would be exciting for Daredevil to experience such an upgrade; secondly, he believes it could boost his chances of securing other movie roles.

Charlie Cox reappeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe by playing Matt Murdock again in “Spider-Man: No Way Home”, and later took on the role of Daredevil in “She-Hulk: Attorney at Law”. He also shared screen time with Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin (Wilson Fisk) character in “Echo”, while Kingpin made a comeback in “Hawkeye”.

The two episode premiere of Daredevil: Born Again streams Tuesday, March 4th on Disney+.
