Previously Charlie Cox’s upcoming Daredevil: Born Again faced major setbacks based on one alleged storyline that emotionally damaged fans. During the 2023 WGA strike, rumors began spreading like wildfire surrounding a storyline that revolved around the heartbreaking death of Foggy Nelson, played by Elden Henson.
And now, as Marvel began shooting Daredevil: Born Again, after the WGA strikes and all the production setbacks, leaked photos from the set confirmed that Charlie Cox’s show is following the very rumored storyline.

Charlie Cox’s upcoming Daredevil: Born Again has been through some production snags. Encountering massive delays, production issues, and later facing WGA strikes, the upcoming show almost took a backseat at Marvel Studios. During those reports of production delays, a rumor surfaced on the internet claiming that the show was changing one alleged storyline.
According to reports from CanWeGetSomeToast, it was stated that Charlie Cox’s upcoming show was initially set to go by the storyline that revolved around the tragic death of Foggy Nelson, played by Elden Henson. According to that storyline, Daredevil: Born Again was set to witness Matt Murdock retiring as Daredevil after Foggy’s death, as he failed to save his friend.
Another alleged storyline also involved Karen Page’s death, but fans were seemingly more worried about Foggy Nelson’s death. Although the rumored storyline was later claimed to have been chopped, netizens were heartbroken over it because the plot showed Matt being on his own, especially after the significance of his and Foggy’s relationship in the lore of the Daredevil comic.
