Daredevil: Born Again marks the full-fledged entry of the Devil of Hell's Kitchen into the MCU. The character has appeared in Spider-Man: No Way Home and She-Hulk in cameos, but the new Disney+ series marks the first time Daredevil will have its own show in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. One of the biggest attractions of the show is the return of the cast of the original Netflix show Daredevil returning.

The show sees not just Charlie Cox (Daredevil) and Vincent D'Onofrio (Wilson Fisk aka The Kingpin) return, but also of beloved characters Foggy Nelson and Karen Page. Elden Henson and Deborah Ann Woll return to reprise their respective roles in the series.

Talking about his return as Foggy Nelson after over six years, Henson says, “It was really special for me as you don’t normally get to do this kind of thing. It’s such a pleasure to play Foggy.” The actor adds that the abrupt cancellation of the Netflix show in 2019 meant their characters never got closure. “I love the character so much and to be able to come back and do that after all this time is really nice, because when it ended, we didn’t necessarily know it was going to end,” he adds.

Daredevil: Born Again is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe but also serves as continuation to the original show, which ran for three seasons from 2015-18. The show begins streaming on JioHotstar in India with new episodes dropping every week starting March 5.
