Charlie Cox’s Daredevil: Born Again has been through a great deal of ups and downs ever since it was first announced. From constant delays to unfathomable changes. It has been about the audience’s opinion clashing with the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s vision. All in all, the conflicted views all settle on one common goal, everyone wants Cox’s return as the iconic hero to be legendary.
The initial idea of the series was set to focus on Matt Murdock as a lawyer more than his alter ego. Amidst the Writers’ Strike, the series was put on hold. However, afterward, there seemed to be a change in the trajectory of the show, and an entirely different angle was considered. Chris Ord and Matt Corman, the writers of the show previously, parted ways with it. Fortunately, the legacy of Daredevil seems to be in good hands following the addition of Dario Scardapane of The Punisher.

Fans cannot stop expressing just how happy they are regarding the changes in the series’s creative team. So much so that fans believe Kevin Feige might finally be taking the MCU back in the direction of constant success rather than the fluctuating hit-and-miss of projects released as of late.
