Matt Murdock Is Back: First Episodes of Marvel's 'Daredevil: Born Again' Released

The premiere of Daredevil: Born Again has arrived on Disney+, with the first two episodes of the nine-part series now available. The finale is set to air on April 16.

Born Again serves as a full-fledged continuation of Netflix’s original Daredevil series, which debuted in 2015. The story follows blind lawyer Matt Murdock as he once again faces off against Kingpin, who is vying for the position of New York City mayor.

The first episodes have received a warm reception, currently holding a 68 on Metacritic, an 83% freshness on Rotten Tomatoes, and a 9.4 on IMDb. Critics note that the show is slightly less dark than its predecessor but still retains its brutal action sequences and returning cast members.

The series stars Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock, Vincent D’Onofrio as Kingpin, Elden Henson as Foggy Nelson, and Deborah Ann Woll as Karen Page. Jon Bernthal also reprises his role as The Punisher.
