Disney Plus is juggling with Daredevil: Born Again. First, they filmed a series completely different from Netflix’s Daredevil, only keeping Charlie Cox as the protagonist and with a much softer tone than the original. However, once the producers saw the result, and considering the decline that the Marvel Cinematic Universe was going through, they decided to start filming the series from scratch with a tone more similar to the original.
Now, in the middle of filming this new version of Daredevil: Born Again, we already know that not only Charlie Cox returns as Daredevil. Vincent D’Onofrio also returns as Kingpin, John Bernthal as Punisher, Deborah Ann-Woll as Karen Page, and Elden Henson as Foggy Nelson. And these are not the only actors who will reprise their roles.
Goodbye to Vanessa Fisk’s recast
Although Disney Plus still maintains ambiguity regarding whether it is a direct sequel to Daredevil, the latest news makes it clear that it will be much more connected to the Netflix series than it seemed. Now, they have just confirmed a new actress joining the cast: Ayelet Zurer as Vanessa Fisk. This character was supposed to return with another actress, Sandrine Holt, but the series has ultimately decided to bring back the original interpreter to the role.
