The production of Daredevil: Born Again has been a rollercoaster to follow. The original iteration of the MCU revival was thrown through a creative overhaul. And, while that would be a negative sign for many fans, it seems to have been for the best. The series is now approaching a much more similar and connected style to the original Daredevil series, and furthermore, set photos now reveal a surprising return for the Daredevil: Born Again cast.
Many original players are making a comeback for the series. Of course, Charlie Cox will be returning as the titular Daredevil, while fans can also expect to see Vincent D’Onofrio as Kingpin, Elden Henson as Foggy Nelson, Deborah Ann Woll as Karen Page, and Jon Bernthal as The Punisher.
This is quite the lineup with many other exciting cast members expected to be revealed as production continues. For now, however, fans are now learning that one cast member – thought to have been replaced for the revival – is now back. She was spotted on the set of the series as shared by photographer Steve Sands on Instagram.
As his photos reveal, Ayelet Zurer will make a return as Vanessa Mariana in Daredevil: Born Again. The character previously played the wife of Vincent D’Onofrio’s Wilson Fisk, aka Kingpin, and Sandrine Holt was originally announced as her replacement for Born Again. With Zurer being spotted with D’Onofrio on the set of the show, however, it looks like she was brought back as a result of the creative overhaul.
