'Daredevil: Born Again' review: Is the return of Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk worth the wait?

Image
In Daredevil: Born Again, the iconic archnemeses Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) and Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) face off once again, each claiming they’ve changed. Matt, struggling with a tragic past, swears he’s done with his vigilante life, while Wilson, now a mayoral candidate in New York City, insists he has left behind his criminal empire. Charlie Cox in ' Daredevil: Born Again. ' Giovanni Rufino/Marvel However, neither character truly believes the other, and neither do we. The core of this show relies on the inevitable return of these characters to their familiar roles. If Matt and Wilson ever completely transformed, there would be no story to tell. This sense of familiarity brings both comfort and constraint. Daredevil: Born Again largely sticks to the same formula that worked in the original Netflix series, which can be satisfying, but it also risks feeling stagnant. Despite having new leadership — with Dario Scardapane serving as showrunner and Matt Corman...
