After 5 seasons of Fisk, Daredevil: Born Again season 3 will introduce new villains

Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock in Daredevil: Born Again season 2.

Daredevil: Born Again showrunner Dario Scardapane says that we can expect to encounter some new villains in season 3 after two seasons (or five, if you include the Netflix show) of Kingpin taking center stage in Hell's Kitchen.

"The idea of heroes and villains in our story… Somebody that you may see can evolve into something unexpected… The idea of introducing characters that we know, Bullseye being one of them, and playing around with, 'Should we be rooting for this guy? Wait a second, we can't do that. He killed Foggy,'" Scardapane told The Direct.

"So yeah, I mean, everything's on the table. I think that fan expectations get… I love reading theories. They tend to far outstrip our abilities. But yeah, we've got a few more people heading your way."

This tracks with what we know so far about season 3, which is that Fisk will no longer be mayor, and Vincent D'Onofrio's crime boss won't play such an integral role in the story.

"It feels like we've shed the skin of the Mayor Fisk era. It feels like it's a new book, a new dawn a little bit," Matt Murdock star Charlie Cox recently said about the next installment. "It's still a continuation, obviously, but it's slightly different. I can't give anything away, but it's a new thing, which is fun."

Daredevil: Born Again season 2 comes to an end next week on Disney Plus. Stay up to date with our Daredevil: Born Again season 2 release schedule, or take a look ahead with our guide to all the upcoming Marvel movies and shows.
