BORN AGAIN Season 3 seeks to embody ‘Scrappy New Yorker’ with a ‘hidden angry side’
Daredevil: Born Again returns to Disney+ next year with its second season, but work is already underway on season 3. It is expected to launch in 2027 and will further cement the Man Without Fear as one of the major players in the MCU.

According to a new report from Nexus Point News, Daredevil: Born Again Season 3 is currently looking to play a new key role for this batch of episodes.
The site explains, “The role is codenamed Philip, and casting is looking for actors of open ethnicity in their 20s. Philip is described as a smart, scrappy New Yorker, sweet and lovable with a hidden angry side.”
This could refer to several characters, but Byron “Butch” Pharris/Fisk is a strong possibility. Introduced as a member of The Owl’s gang, we later learn that he is the illegitimate son of Wilson Fisk.
