Major spoilers ahead for Daredevil: Born Again Episode 1.
After six years of uncertainty, Daredevil is finally headlining his own show again, but his return isn’t all good. Daredevil: Born Again reintroduces Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox), Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson), and Karen Page (Deborah Ann Woll) as if no time has passed at all, but within 15 minutes, our trio’s lives are changed forever. Foggy is murdered by the villain Bullseye (Wilson Bethel), leaving Matt and Karen fractured. The loss of their friend will likely define their stories throughout the season, and it may feel like senseless shock value to the fans who waited years to see these characters again. But Brad Winderbaum, Marvel’s head of TV and streaming, insists that Foggy’s demise was the result of “many impassioned debates” and even a few “sleepless nights.”
