Krysten Ritter’s Arrival To ‘Daredevil: Born Again’ Changes Everything For Season 2

Fans of the Marvel/Netflix series that essentially paved the way have long been anticipating this significant event: the integration of The Defenders into the mainstream Marvel Cinematic Universe. Initially, these shows were not produced by Marvel Studios; instead, they were developed specifically for Netflix. As a result, characters like Krysten Ritter, Mike Colter, and Finn Jones did not appear in any of the concurrent Marvel films.

Due to the expiration of rights contracts in 2022 (commonly referred to as corporate synergy), Netflix series have been accessible on Disney+ for quite some time. This move has sparked numerous debates among fans about whether they might recast, revive, or even eliminate shows like Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist. Ritter’s appearance suggests that Colter’s return as Luke Cage could be coming soon. However, the fate of Finn Jones as Iron Fist remains uncertain due to the backlash the original series faced for casting him. But in today’s era, nothing can ever be ruled out completely, so it’s possible that both Jones and Colter may appear in Season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again.

To put it frankly, since The Defenders are the Avengers of the streets, if we require assistance in our battle against Wilson Fisk, that moment is undeniably upon us.
