The first few episodes of Daredevil: Born Again have already delivered intense action, shocking twists, and deep emotional stakes. With Matt Murdock navigating a dangerous world where Wilson Fisk now holds political power as the Mayor of New York, the stakes have never been higher. But what can we expect from the upcoming episodes? Based on the events so far, comic book lore, and subtle hints throughout the show, here’s what might be in store for Daredevil: Born Again.
1. The True Fate of White Tiger
Episode 3 ended on a tragic note with Hector Ayala’s shocking death. However, as longtime comic fans know, White Tiger’s legacy doesn’t end with him. His niece, Angela del Toro, and sister, Ava Ayala, have both taken up the White Tiger mantle in the comics. Could one of them step forward in the coming episodes? If so, we may see a new White Tiger rise to avenge Hector’s murder and continue his fight for justice.
2. The Identity of the Mysterious Shooter
The biggest cliffhanger from Episode 3 was the identity of the assassin who gunned down Hector Ayala. Was it Frank Castle, a.k.a. The Punisher, returning to his brutal methods? Or could it be a copycat vigilante, a corrupt officer, or even one of Fisk’s enforcers aiming to send a message? Given how the show has already teased the Punisher logo and references, we might see Jon Bernthal’s return sooner than expected.
3. Wilson Fisk’s Next Move
Fisk’s influence over the city has grown significantly now that he’s the mayor. His crackdown on vigilantes has already led to Matt’s courtroom battles and increased hostility between law enforcement and street-level heroes. The next episodes will likely show Fisk tightening his grip, possibly passing new anti-vigilante laws or using the police to target those who challenge his rule. Expect more corruption, manipulation, and some devastating consequences for those who dare to stand against him.
4. Matt’s Struggle With His Identity
Matt Murdock has spent the first few episodes trying to walk away from being Daredevil. However, Hector’s tragic fate and Fisk’s growing power might force him back into the red suit sooner rather than later. Will he embrace Daredevil again, or will his internal struggle make him hesitate at a critical moment? His conflict with Bullseye in the previous episodes showed how dangerous his anger can be—will it consume him, or will he find a new way to fight back?
5. The Role of Muse – The Disturbing Serial Killer
Muse, a horrifying villain from the Daredevil comics, has already been teased with his disturbing street art and references to the Punisher’s logo. This enigmatic killer could become a major antagonist, operating in the shadows while Fisk and Matt clash in the public eye. If he is truly behind the eerie graffiti seen throughout the show, we might be in for a terrifying game of cat and mouse between Daredevil and one of his creepiest foes.
6. Possible Cameos and Marvel Crossovers
With the MCU becoming increasingly interconnected, Daredevil: Born Again has the perfect opportunity to introduce other street-level heroes. Could we see appearances from Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, or even Spider-Man himself? The references to Miles Morales and the mention of Morales as an officer’s last name hint at a possible deeper connection to Spider-Man’s world.
7. Bullseye’s Return to the Spotlight
Although Matt nearly killed Bullseye in Episode 1, the deadly assassin is still out there. Could Fisk use him as his personal enforcer, just as he did in Daredevil Season 3? If so, we might see an intense rematch between Matt and Bullseye, with even higher stakes this time around.
8. Foggy Nelson and Karen Page – Are They Really Gone?
The show shocked fans by revealing that Foggy Nelson was killed off before the events of Episode 1. However, in a world where deception and hidden truths are common, is Foggy truly dead? Some fans speculate that his fate might not be as final as it seems. Meanwhile, Karen Page has yet to make an appearance—will she return to Matt’s life in later episodes, and if so, how will she react to everything he’s lost?
9. The Rise of a New Daredevil?
In the comics, characters like Elektra and even Iron Fist have taken up the Daredevil mantle at various points. With Matt reluctant to be Daredevil again, could another character temporarily step in? Elektra’s absence so far has left fans wondering if she might return in a shocking twist.
10. A Final Showdown Between Daredevil and Fisk
No matter what happens in the upcoming episodes, everything is leading toward an inevitable final battle between Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk. Whether it’s in the courtroom, in the streets, or in a brutal one-on-one fight, their war is far from over. The question remains: will Matt’s moral code hold firm, or will he be forced to cross a line he can never come back from?
The upcoming episodes of Daredevil: Born Again promise even more intense action, heartbreaking losses, and shocking revelations. With Fisk’s reign tightening, vigilantes under fire, and new enemies emerging, Matt Murdock will have to make some of the toughest decisions of his life. One thing’s for sure—fans won’t want to miss what happens next!
