D23 released a lot of content that has gotten fans excited for what is to come from all of Disney’s branches, be it Marvel, Star Wars, or Pixar. Among the many teasers that were released during the event, Daredevil: Born Again also received a teaser, one that might have revealed a key connection between the character and the X-Men.
While the street-level side of MCU might be separate from the bigger multiversal and cosmic conflicts, the franchise might be heading towards muddying the waters to make a cohesive universe, where big-budget characters like Wolverine can crossover with smaller projects like Daredevil.
Daredevil might be getting his Hand of God suit in the MCU
In the teaser that was showcased in D23, a shot revealed a slew of Daredevil masks. While there were many iconic variations of the suit that were on display, one particular suit, which was pure white, might hint at a storyline that could tie Daredevil in with Wolverine in a manner that could have the two characters butting heads.
Daredevil Season 3 already tied directly to Wolverine’s mythos by introducing the character of Kenji Oyama, who was responsible for discovering Adamantium which would eventually be grafted on Wolverine’s skeleton.
Daredevil: Born Again seems that it will be integrating the character of Daredevil into the MCU. The character might find himself encountering more magical and supernatural aspects of the world, which might just lead him down the path where he faces Wolverine, who was possessed by Wrath at the time of their encounter.
Daredevil: Born Again could be the beginning of the Second Civil War in the MCU
The alleged plot of Daredevil: Born Again will see Wilson Fisk take over New York City. His next step would be to outlaw vigilantes based on the crimes committed by those that he himself planted among the ranks of the heroes. As the government becomes more involved in Superhero affairs across the board, there might be renewed support for any Sokovia Accords adjacent activities which might lead to a split in the superhero factions once again.
While Thunderbolts and the New Avengers might find themselves siding with the government, independent actors like Daredevil, The Punisher, Moon Knight, and others might feel that it’s in their best interest that they operate outside the supervision of the government, especially with bad apples like Wilson Fisk and Thunderbolt Ross among their ranks.
Daredevil: Born Again is set to release in March 2025.
