Overview
- Multiple outlets reported Monday that Marvel and Disney+ will conclude Daredevil: Born Again with its upcoming third season, which finished principal photography several months ago and is now in post-production.
- Reports say showrunner Dario Scardapane’s contract was not renewed and he has exited the series during post-production, and sources do not yet name who will oversee the final editing, visual effects, scoring, and delivery.
- Season 3 is expected to debut on Disney+ in 2027 and reportedly reunites several Netflix-era Defenders characters, including Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist, without revealing plot details.
- Industry coverage links the decision to falling viewership—Luminate-tracked early-window metrics showed a steep drop from Season 1 to Season 2—and to Marvel’s recent reductions in planned live-action shows for Disney+.
- The end of Born Again after Season 3 closes this revival of the Netflix-era street-level corner of the MCU but does not rule out future appearances for the characters in films or other projects as Marvel reshapes its TV strategy.
