We haven’t heard much about the upcoming third season of Marvel’s Daredevil, which has made many people think that we won’t be getting it until next year. Apparently, though, that’s not the case at all, as a recent Netflix quarterly earnings call revealed that we’ll still be getting the show this year, along with the second season of Iron Fist – but people don’t seem as excited about that. The news comes from Netflix CFO David Wells.
During the call, Wells reportedly said:
“In the short term, we’ve got new seasons coming up, in the second half of this year, of Orange is the New Black, Ozark, Iron Fist, Daredevil, Narcos, the finale of House of Cards, the follow-up series to Making a Murderer.”
In addition to that, the villain on the season will probably end up being Bullseye. It was rumored that Wilson Bethel will be playing the character, and a now deleted Instagram post all but officially confirms that he is:

While we don’t know many plot details, we do know that Kingpin will return, as well as Daredevil’s black suit that we saw in Season One.
We also don’t know the exact release date, there aren’t many months left in 2018, so it should definitely be on the way soon. We know Iron Fist will premiere on September 7th, so expect something after that. If I had to make a prediction, I’d probably say November – as that’s when Marvel’s The Punisher premiered last year.
