Production for the series reboot received a positive update after D’Onofrio previously confirmed toComic Book:

What Can Fans Expect FromDaredevil: Born Again?
The Devil of Hell’s Kitchen might be back in his game, but Charlie Cox hinted that the series might not be as gruesome as what fans enjoyed before. He shared viaNMEthat the upcomingDaredevil: Born Againwill share some similarities with the original show, but because this is under Disney+, there might be some changes.
“My opinion is this character works best when he’s geared towards a slightly more mature audience. My instinct is that on Disney+ it will be dark, but it probably won’t be as gory.”
He already expects that fans will anticipate some sort of continuity from the previous installment, but the actor hopes that they will welcome the new era of Daredevil.
“I would say to those people, we’ve done that. Let’s take the things that really worked, but can we broaden? Can we appeal to a slightly younger audience without losing what we’ve learned about what works?”
Daredevil: Born Againis one of the biggest and highly anticipated projects from Marvel Studios. The series is set to premiere on Disney+ in 2025 with 18 episodes.
