Disney+ has ordered a third season of Daredevil: Born Again, extending the Marvel series months before its second season arrives in March 2026 and signaling continued confidence in the street-level saga led by Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio. The renewal follows a strong launch for the show’s 2025 debut, which drew 7.5 million views in its first five days, the best series opening on the service that year, according to Disney figures.
Marvel’s head of streaming, television, and animation, Brad Winderbaum, said the new cycle is officially greenlit and planned to begin production next year, offering a rare early look at the franchise’s timetable as the studio plots its television slate. Season 2 is set for March 2026 on Disney+, continuing the storyline established in the first season’s finale and maintaining momentum for Marvel’s grounded New York crime arc.
The creative team that reshaped the series during its 2023 overhaul remains central to its identity. Dario Scardapane, installed as showrunner during the reset, steered the project away from an early legal-procedural approach toward a grittier crime narrative, with directing duties shared on key blocks by Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead. That pivot, combined with the return of legacy characters from the Netflix era, helped frame Born Again as a continuity bridge within Marvel’s television efforts.
Cast details for Season 3 have not been announced, but recent months have seen steady hints about the show’s direction. After a bout of fan anxiety in August when Cox described Season 2 as the “final season,” D’Onofrio quickly clarified that his co-star was referring to the latest filmed run and suggested there was a strong chance of more episodes. The new renewal formalizes those expectations and locks in another chapter for Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk’s power struggle.
The decision also keeps Born Again in step with Marvel’s broader pipeline, which includes additional Disney+ series and 2026 features expected to interlock across characters and storylines. With cameras targeting a 2026 start, Disney and Marvel are staking out a stable berth for one of the MCU’s most durable television properties.
