How to Watch Daredevil: Born Again Online in 4K

If you want to watch Daredevil: Born Again, the Marvel Studios series that restored one of the most beloved superhero television characters to the screen, this is your complete guide. Below you will find what the show is, how it connects to the wider MCU, who is in it, and how to stream both seasons in the best possible quality.

What is Daredevil: Born Again?

Daredevil: Born Again is a superhero drama series produced by Marvel Studios that streams exclusively on Disney+. The first season premiered on 4 March 2025, with nine episodes releasing through April 2025 as part of Phase Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The second season premiered on 24 March 2026, running eight episodes through 5 May 2026 as part of Phase Six. A third season has been confirmed, with filming underway as of March 2026 and an expected release in March 2027.

The series stars Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock / Daredevil — reprising the role he first played in the Netflix Marvel series Daredevil (2015–2018) — and Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk / Kingpin, Murdock's primary antagonist, whose political power and physical brutality make him one of the MCU's most compelling villains.

Background — the Netflix Daredevil legacy

From 2015 to 2018, Netflix produced a series of Marvel television shows including Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, The Defenders, and The Punisher. Of these, Daredevil was widely considered the strongest, praised for its grounded tone, extended fight choreography, and particularly for D'Onofrio's performance as Wilson Fisk.

The Netflix series ran for three seasons before Netflix cancelled the Marvel shows in 2018–2019. When Marvel Studios regained full control of its television production, the question of whether the Netflix shows' characters and continuity would be incorporated into the MCU became a major topic. Cox reprised the role of Matt Murdock in Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (2022), and D'Onofrio returned as Fisk in Hawkeye (2021).

Daredevil: Born Again is the full, official return of both characters to their own series, this time produced by Marvel Studios and integrated fully into the MCU timeline.

The showrunner

Dario Scardapane serves as showrunner. Scardapane previously worked as a writer on The Punisher (2017–2019) and brings familiarity with the Netflix Marvel television universe to the new production.

Directors Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead, who previously directed episodes of Moon Knight (2022) and Loki Season 2 (2023), directed multiple episodes of Born Again.

Cast

Season 1 and 2 main cast:

• Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock / Daredevil — a blind lawyer who operates by night as a vigilante in Hell's Kitchen, New York
• Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk / Kingpin — now the Mayor of New York, using political power to reshape the city in his image
• Margarita Levieva as a central Season 1 supporting character
• Genneya Walton as a supporting cast member

Season 2 additions:

• Matthew Lillard
• Lili Taylor
• Toby Leonard Moore
• Krysten Ritter, reprising her role as Jessica Jones — marking the first return of another Netflix Marvel character to the MCU

What to expect from the series

Born Again takes a darker, more grounded approach than most MCU Disney+ series. Tonally, it is closer to the Netflix series than to the lighter superhero adventures of the early MCU. The fight sequences — including extended corridor and stairwell fights that recall the Netflix series' most celebrated action work — are staged with the same physicality and consequence.

Wilson Fisk as Mayor of New York is the series' most compelling political hook. The idea of a crime lord transforming into a legitimate political figure, using democratic power to pursue the same ends as organised crime, gives the series contemporary resonance beyond its superhero premise.

The Season 2 arrival of Krysten Ritter as Jessica Jones represents the first full integration of another Netflix Marvel character into MCU continuity, and signals that the show is building toward something larger.
