Marvel fans are curious about whether Wilson Bethel, who played Bullseye in Daredevil‘s third season, is reprising his role as the highly skilled marksman villain for the Disney Plus series Daredevil: Born Again. Here is what we know.
Is Wilson Bethel’s Bullseye going to be in Daredevil: Born Again?
Wilson Bethel’s Bullseye is reportedly going to be in Daredevil: Born Again.
Reputed but semi-reliable industry insider and scooper Daniel Richtman (Daniel RPK) revealed via Patreon that he was able to confirm Wilson Bethel’s return as Bullseye in Daredevil: Born Again. This was later corroborated by various other sites and news outlets such as Deadline.
Bethel’s Bullseye is the latest Daredevil cast member to reportedly return for Daredevil: Born Again after Deborah Ann Woll’s Karen Page and Elden Henson’s Foggy Nelson.
The character was last seen in the third season of Netflix’s and now Disney Plus’ Daredevil where he was an FBI agent and sniper with diagnosed mental health issues who previously served in the army. He was eventually manipulated by Kingpin into masquerading as Daredevil in an attempt to ruin the real Daredevil’s reputation.
Eventually, Bullseye learns of Kingpin’s manipulation from Daredevil and crashes Kingpin’s and Vanessa Fisk’s wedding reception seeking revenge but is eventually defeated resulting in his spine being broken. He was last seen undergoing an experimental surgery to restore his spine.
As of writing, it is unknown how Wilson Bethel’s Bullseye will factor into the plot of the series, but if Daredevil: Born Again happens to continue the story established by Daredevil, then the show could see Bullseye slowly recover from his spine injury and seek revenge on both Daredevil and Kingpin for his defeat. Or he will perhaps be manipulated by Kingpin once again to kill the real Daredevil.
