Fans have been excited with the production of Daredevil: Born Again gearing up to begin this month. The production is slated to begin in New York with several original cast members from the Netflix series. Naturally, this includes Charlie Cox as Daredevil and Vincent D’Onofrio as Kingpin. Unfortunately, it looks like certain other major characters from the original Daredevil Netflix series won’t be making an appearance in Born Again.
It was recently shared via THR that two supporting characters from the original series are unlikely to appear. The characters are none other than Deborah Ann Woll’s Karen Page and Elden Henson’s Froggy Nelson. Though it’s also possible that the roles may just be recast altogether.
Here’s what they stated based on the show’s roll call sheet:
“Other actors from the Netflix Daredevil series are not expected to return. Deborah Ann Woll and Elden Henson, who played classic supporting characters Karen Page and Foggy Nelson, respectively, are not on the roll call for the Marvel series. It is also unclear whether those characters will be recast or excised from the story.”
It’s interesting to see that both of these characters are unlikely to appear in Daredevil: Born Again. Of course, we could always be surprised with whatever cards Marvel might have up their sleeve. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens.
As of this writing, the confirmed cast for Daredevil: Born Again includes Charlie Cox, Vincent D’Onofrio, and Jon Bernthal. Hopefully with production set to begin soon, it won’t be long before we learn what other cast members are involved.
The upcoming Disney Plus series Daredevil: Born Again is scheduled to be released in early 2024. The first season of the series is currently set to contain eighteen episodes. Fans can stay tuned to ScreenGeek for additional updates on the highly-anticipated MCU series as we have them.
