It’s not uncommon for Marvel fans to uncover details about the next big project coming down the pipeline — but Daredevil: Born Again lovers have been uniquely spoiled. No one has to go looking for leaks where the reboot is concerned. As the show shoots smack dab in New York City, key plot details for upcoming episodes are often revealed before the last season has even finished airing. That was the case with Season 2: shortly before its finale heralded the return of Defenders like Luke Cage (Mike Colter), paps caught Colter on the set of Born Again Season 3 with Krysten Ritter (who’d then just reprised her role as Jessica Jones) and Finn Jones, the (unfairly!) maligned star of Netflix’s Iron Fist. Those unofficial set photos teased a Defenders reunion that seemed improbable just a few years ago — and as filming continues for Born Again Season 3, they won’t be the only ones returning.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is rebuilding Netflix’s Defenders Universe brick by brick, and it’s bringing a major part of the Daredevil ethos back to life to do it. Élodie Yung, who portrayed the assassin Elektra Natchios in Daredevil Season 2 and The Defenders, was spotted on the set of Born Again Season 3.
