New York City, USA – Fans of the popular Netflix series “Daredevil” may have reason to rejoice, as there are signs that the upcoming spin-off series, “Daredevil: Born Again,” will feature the return of some familiar faces. Charlie Cox, who played the show’s titular character, is expected to reprise his role, alongside Deborah Ann Woll and Elden Henson, who portrayed his friends and coworkers, Karen Page and Foggy Nelson.
Although there has been no official confirmation from Disney or Cox about the returning cast members, industry insider Jeff Sneider reported that both Woll and Henson are set to make a comeback in the new series. The news comes as a pleasant surprise, as Disney has been tight-lipped about the fate of the original cast members since the show’s cancellation.
Fans of the Marvel/Netflix union can also look forward to the return of Vincent D’Onofrio as Kingpin and Jon Bernthal as Punisher, as well as the introduction of new actors such as Michael Gandolfini and Sandrine Holt. The inclusion of these characters and the return of Cox, Woll, and Henson suggest that the new series will maintain a strong connection to the original show and its intricate narrative.
The timing of these castings is particularly interesting, as the recent appearance of Daredevil in the series “Echo” and the confirmation that the original show is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe canon indicate a renewed focus on the character. With “Daredevil: Born Again” undergoing a creative reboot last year, it seems that the return of Woll and Henson is an essential part of bringing the series back to its former glory.
As of now, Disney has not yet made an official announcement regarding the casting decisions, but if the reports are true, it is a reassuring affirmation that the beloved characters will continue to be a part of the show’s future. The original series left off with Cox, Woll, and Henson, and it only seems fitting that they should be present to kickstart the next chapter of “Daredevil.”
“Daredevil: Born Again” is set to debut on Disney+ in the near future. Fans can anticipate a continuation of the thrilling storyline and the return of their favorite characters to the gritty streets of Hell’s Kitchen.
