That was one heck of a cliffhanger, huh? The penultimate episode of Daredevil: Born Again ended with a shocking turn of events. Sure, there was an assassination attempt against New York City Mayor Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio),

After Vanessa's revelation at the beginning of episode 9, we now know that his corruption was one of the main reasons that Fisk was able to be released. This helps fill in some of the gaps between the Netflix show and the Disney Plus continuation, and fans are happy to finally have an update on the character all these years later.

As for the new faces joining the MCU, Deadline announced in February 2025 that Matthew Lillard — who is known for starring in 2002's Scooby-Doo and the Scream franchise — is joining the Daredevil: Born Again cast in an undisclosed role for season 2.
