Marvel fans are eagerly awaiting the premiere of Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 on Disney+, but a new rumor has already stirred speculation — and worry — about what’s coming in Season 3.
Kingpin’s Reign as Mayor
Season 1 ended with Wilson Fisk, a.k.a. Kingpin, elected as New York City’s mayor. He quickly imposed martial law, outlawed vigilantes, and imprisoned rivals. Season 2, debuting March 24, will explore the fallout of his political power grab, with Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) and allies fighting back against Fisk’s authoritarian rule.
Rumors About Season 3
Scooper Alex Perez recently hinted on X that even if Fisk loses his mayoral seat, he won’t be finished. According to Perez, the power vacuum left behind after Fisk eliminates his competition will allow him to dominate the criminal underworld once more. Vincent D’Onofrio is confirmed to reprise his role in Season 3, suggesting Kingpin’s influence will remain central to the story.
Devil’s Reign Connection
The Devil’s Reign comic storyline, which ran from December 2021 to May 2022, saw Fisk outlaw superheroes in New York. Season 2 is already adapting parts of that arc, making it unlikely Season 3 will continue the same thread. Instead, Fisk may return to his roots as a crime lord, posing new threats to Daredevil and potentially opening the door for Bullseye to play a larger role.
What’s Next for Season 2
Before fans can speculate too much about Season 3, Season 2 promises major developments. Alongside Charlie Cox, Krysten Ritter returns as Jessica Jones, while newcomers Matthew Lillard (Mr. Charles) and Lili Taylor (Governor Marge McCaffrey) add fresh political and personal challenges for Fisk. With Kingpin’s grip on New York tightening, Season 2 will set the stage for his eventual downfall — but if rumors prove true, Season 3 could see him rise again, more dangerous than ever.
