Daredevil: Born Again won’t be the first time that the main cast of the series comes together, and according to stars Vincent D’Onofrio and Charlie Cox, they’re treating the show as if it’s just Daredevil Season 4.
What did Daredevil’s stars say about Born Again?
Speaking to Deadline during the show’s premiere, D’Onofrio said that to them, the show is like a fourth season of the original Netflix series.
“It’s like a fourth season of the original show,” said D’Onofrio. “I mean, it’s called Daredevil: Born Again, and it’s the first season of that, but it’s the same tone, same guys, same misery, same excitement, same emotions, and more.”
Charlie Cox didn’t add much, but did joke that the show was “dark” multiple times.
