Rumors have hit the web that the superhero White Tiger will be appearing in the upcoming Daredevil: Born Again series. Some fans are curious about who that character is, while others want to know whether there is any truth to the rumors and which actor could take on the role. Here is everything you need to know.
Who is White Tiger and will they be in Daredevil: Born Again?
White Tiger is a superhero in the Marvel Universe that is themed after the white tiger animal. Unlike most superheroes, White Tiger is a mantle shared by four characters, Hector Ayala, Kevin Cole, Angela del Toro, and Ava Ayala. As for whether all of them will appear in Daredevil: Born Again, it is unconfirmed as of publishing.
In the comics, White Tiger is a superhero mantle shared by four characters, Hector Ayala, Angela Del Toro (Hector’s niece), Kevin Cole, and Ava Ayala (Hector’s sister). All of them possess similar abilities such as enhanced strength, speed, stamina, agility, flexibility, dexterity, endurance, coordination, and balance via their possession of the three White Tiger mystical amulets that have a connection to K’un L’un, the place where Danny Rand trained to become Iron Fist.
It is unknown if all versions of the White Tiger will appear in Daredevil: Born Again. However, according to semi-reliable scooper Daniel RPK, not only will the character reportedly appear in Daredevil: Born Again but there is also a plan for the character to have their own show.
Three months ago, however, another conflicting report from insider CanWeGetSomeToast reported via X (formerly Twitter) that there was a plan to feature three iterations of the character in the show: Hector Ayala, Angela Del Toro, and Ava Ayala.
Which actors could play the live-action White Tiger?
As three iterations of White Tiger, Hector Ayala, Angela del Toro, and Ava Ayala will reportedly appear in Daredevil: Born Again as per CanWeGetSomeToast, multiple actors can take on the three roles. Here are some solid choices for actors for each role based on their acting abilities.
