In the mid-2010s, the critically acclaimed Marvel series "Daredevil" captivated audiences with its gritty portrayal of Hell's Kitchen over three seasons. It was a surprise to many when Netflix abruptly cancelled the show in 2018. However, fans were thrilled to see Charlie Cox reprise his role as Daredevil in lighter MCU projects like "She-Hulk" and "Spider-Man: No Way Home." Despite these appearances, few anticipated the return of a standalone series. Yet, Marvel has brought the hero back to life with "Daredevil: Born Again," promising even more intense action and drama, now available on the family-friendly Disney+.

As their past identities resurface, both men find themselves on a collision course.
Will There Be a Season 2?
Initially planned as a 19-episode season, "Daredevil: Born Again" has been split into two parts for the streaming era. The first season consists of nine episodes, with the second season set to include the remaining nine episodes of the original arc. There's no confirmed release date yet for the second season on Disney+.

"Daredevil" was part of "The Defenders," which included "Jessica Jones," "Luke Cage," and "Iron Fist." With Daredevil's return, there's speculation about potential comebacks for other Defenders.
