Fans looking forward to Daredevil: Born Again will want to brace themselves as the latest update from Marvel Studios is truly heartbreaking!
Just when we thought the news surrounding Daredevil: Born Again could not get any worse, Disney dishes out what just might be the most disappointing update since the show was announced at San Diego Comic-Con 2022.
After being delayed by the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, the highly anticipated Disney Plus original series, which will see Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio reprise their roles as Daredevil and Kingpin, has now been removed from the Marvel Studios programming slate entirely.
Originally slated for a Spring 2024 release, a new report from The Hollywood Reporter reports that the show has been taken off the calendar with no alternative date selected for the show. This means, it officially is in limbo and fans could be facing a long delay.
Daredevil: Born Again release date predictions
Considering that Marvel has opted not to include Daredevil: Born Again on its programming slate for 2024 and that the 2024 schedule has become overrun with other shows, we’re starting to question whether there is a chance the show will still come out in 2024 at all.
Originally, Daredevil: Born Again was supposed to come in Spring of 2024 which suggested a release date between March and June. However, the series has now been removed from the calendar with Marvel kicking off 2024 with Echo in January followed by X-Men ’97 in “early 2024.”
With Agatha: Darkhold Diaries coming in Fall 2024 ahead of the Halloween holiday, the earliest we could see Daredevil: Born Again arrive would be in Summer 2024. However, if that was the case, one would have thought Disney would have announced this new release window when revealing its updated calendar.
This has many wondering if the show might not arrive until December 2024 or possibly even early 2025. Given how things have been playing out at Marvel, we honestly can’t rule out either option.
Of course, the key is going to be the timing for when the season is able to resume production as it’s been on hold since June after WGA picketing forced Marvel to stop production. With the strikes possibly running through the fall, there is a chance production won’t be able to pick back up until the end of 2023 or the beginning of 2024 which means it is possible the delay will be longer than Marvel might have expected.
This uncertainty could be why Marvel Studios opted not to give Daredevil: Born Again an updated release date as this gives them more flexibility when it comes to determining the schedule.
For now, all we know for certain is that Daredevil: Born Again won’t be coming in 2024 nor will it be coming in the first half of 2024.
