Despite being marketed as a fresh series, it’s challenging not to view Daredevil: Born Again as an extension of the initial Netflix series. Recently, Disney+ has unveiled a sneak peek that brings Jon Bernthal back into his renowned Punisher costume, reprising his role for the first time since 2019 when The Punisher Season 2 was available on Netflix. Moreover, the streaming service has disclosed the exact number of episodes set to premiere on Mar. 4, and viewers are eagerly awaiting the return of Daredevil with great anticipation.
In the fresh TV trailer for “Daredevil: Born Again,” we get a load of intense, action-filled sequences involving Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) squaring off against various villains in the upcoming series. What’s particularly intriguing is the return of Frank Castle, who now bears the Punisher logo again, as hinted by a quick glimpse of his iconic trench coat during the final episode of “The Punisher” Season 2. Despite a substantial time leap and an array of fresh characters, there appears to be a strong connection so far between the Disney+ series and the highly acclaimed Netflix show. The sneak peek also offers glimpses of some thrilling new additions, such as White Tiger, another crime-fighting figure in New York City.
‘Daredevil: Born Again’ Goes Further Than Original Netflix Show
The upcoming series “Daredevil: Born Again” will draw upon many aspects from the Netflix show, yet the team working on it emphasizes that this new version will offer something uniquely distinct. Showrunner Dario Scardapane admires the original Netflix production, but hints that “Born Again” will push the darker elements even more. Previously, Scardapane labeled Netflix’s Daredevil as a noir, while “Born Again” leans more heavily on crime themes and boasts “a tempo and scale that, for various reasons, Netflix wasn’t able to achieve.
I truly believe that the Netflix series “Daredevil,” which seems deeply ingrained in me, leans heavily into noir and New York crime stories. It shares similarities with The Sopranos and King of New York, capturing the essence of ’90s crime narratives. The show’s pace and scale are unique, offering a depth that Netflix often struggles to achieve. While not all dark in terms of storyline, they were quite grim visually, although there were certainly some somber themes. Overall, it’s a much darker portrayal compared to other series.
Born Again” is being hyped as a grittier, bloodier take on the initial series, and it aims to surpass another well-regarded superhero show. The showrunner stated that “The Penguin” on HBO poses a direct challenge, but “Born Again” differs significantly: “We’re quicker, more ruthless, and more refined in our storytelling.” Meeting the hype of the Netflix series is one thing, but “Born Again” aspires to reach much further than the footsteps of its forerunner.
