Fans can finally take a breath of relief as the ‘Daredevil: Born Again’ trailer, despite the delay, finally came out. Kingpin actor Vincent D’Onforio previously blamed the LA wildfires for the delay.
Now that the trailer is here, it’s safe to say, that Marvel Studios has dropped a trailer that perfectly encapsulates the gritty, bone-crunching action fans have been craving. The Devil’s work is never done, and judging by the intense preview, Matt Murdock’s latest looks like his most brutal yet.

The trailer made sure to showcase Daredevil in all his bloody, conflicted glory. It begins with an explosive reunion between Charlie Cox‘s Matt Murdock and his archenemy, Wilson Fisk aka Kingpin. Fisk, now more dangerous than ever, has his sights set on the mayor’s office. Matt challenges Fisk’s motives in a scene brimming with tension and razor-sharp dialogue.
However, Fisk isn’t the only threat. The preview teases the emergence of Muse, a sadistic, masked villain who will likely push Daredevil to his limits. Fans also get a chilling glimpse of Wilson Bethel’s Bullseye behind bars. Moreover, if all this wasn’t enough, Jon Bernthal’s Frank Castle/The Punisher storms back into the fold.
