Matthew Lillard Talks Playing an Original Character for Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 [Exclusive]

The second season of Daredevil: Born Again will bring back some familiar faces, including Lili Taylor (known from The Conjuring) as New York Governor Marge McCaffrey, and Matthew Lillard (of Scream fame) as a character named Mr. Charles. Lillard’s role is described as someone influential who starts to cause problems for the Kingpin in the worlds of politics and international relations, but this description feels unclear for a character played by such a well-known actor within the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Why Both Sony & Marvel Can Make Spider-Man TV Shows

The complicated situation with Spider-Man’s TV and movie rights started when Sony first obtained the rights to make both live-action and animated Spider-Man content. They initially used this to create shows like Spider-Man: The New Animated Series for MTV. Things changed when Sony and Marvel began talks about bringing Spider-Man into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). To allow Spider-Man to appear in MCU films and receive financial benefits, Sony reportedly gave Marvel back the rights to create animated TV shows, but with strict rules about how those shows could be made. This resulted in a split system where Sony controls Spider-Man in movies, while Marvel handles animated TV series.

As the second season nears, fans haven’t even seen Karoo, Princess Vivi’s beloved pet duck, suggesting he may be excluded as well.
