🍿🎬👀 Have you seen the new Daredevil trailer? Josh breaks it down for us below! 👀🎬🍿
Hey guys, today I’m back with another post. This time a trailer breakdown for something that I’ve been really looking forward to, Daredevil Born Again. This is a reboot/continuation of one of if not my favourite TV show of all time, Daredevil.
So the trailer begins with a shot of Matt Murdock in his original Daredevil costume beating up criminals before we see a closeup of his face and mask. We then see Matt sitting at a table at a diner saying “Thank you for finding the time.”. We then cut to a few action shots of Wilson Fisk aka Kingpin absolutely brutalising a bunch of people before cutting back to the diner as Wilson is seen responding to Matt saying “Well, I will admit it’s not entirely unpleasant seeing you again.”. This likely means that at least early on in the show Matt and Fisk have reached some form of peace which’ll obviously come crashing down.
We then see Matt with his partners Foggy Nelson and Karen Page as Fisk says “A lot of time has passed. By the look of it you’ve come up in the world.” to which Matt responds “I could say the same about you.”. This likely means that Fisk has at least publicly given up his life of crime in exchange for pursuing a life of politics as mayor which he expressed interest in at the end of the Echo series. Fisk then says “A mayor serves his city. I can see you’re not entirely convinced.” meaning that Matt is clearly still just waiting for Fisk to inevitably slip up and renter the criminal underworld as Matt responds “Can you blame me?”. We then see someone painting anti Fisk street art before we see Fisk in his iconic white suit killing someone in rage.
Matt then responds to Fisk “I can’t shake the feeling that you’re gaming the system.” to which Fisk says “Why did you stop being a vigilante?”. Matt responds “A line was crossed.”, considering Daredevil’s no killing rule it’s not hard to guess what line that is. Fisk then says “It’s hard to come to terms with a violent nature. Hating the power it has over us.” Along with the voiceover we see a few action shots revealing that this series will be just as brutal and violent as the original.
We then see Benjamin Pointdexter aka Bullseye being escorted through a prison as Matt says “This city can’t go unchecked.” as Fisk responds “Sometimes peace needs to be broken and chaos must reign.” as we see a shot of Pointdexter in his Bullseye costume throwing a smoke bomb. We then see a shot of a new villain, Muse, before seeing Fisk with his wife, Vanessa having dinner.
We then see someone lunging at Matt and slamming him against a locker before Matt shouts “Frank!” revealing that this is Frank Castle aka the Punisher. Matt asks “Mind putting the hatchet down?” before Frank tosses it. Matt then says “I was raised to believe in grace.”. We then see a few action shots including one of new villain, White Tiger suiting up. We then see Matt about to suit up as Daredevil, showing a closet full of different masks including the yellow one last seen in She Hulk, a black one and a grey one along with the usual red while he continues “But I was also raised to believe in retribution.”.
We then see a few more action shots including one especially brutal one of Matt breaking someone’s arm while we see two different shots of him screaming in rage both in how Matt Murdock attire and his Daredevil suit before cutting to the title card with original series theme being played on an organ, a reference to Matt’s Catholicism.
Daredevil Born Again is due to begin streaming March 4th this year on Disney +. The series will star Margarita Levieva as Heather Glenn, Matt’s love interest, Deborah Ann Woll as Karen Page, Matt’s ex and law partner, Elden Henson as Foggy Nelson, Matt’s best friend and partner, Kamar de los Reyes as White Tiger, Mohan Kapur as Yusuf Khan, Kamala Khan aka Ms Marvel’s father, Wilson Bethel as Benjamin Pointdexter aka Bullseye, a former FBI agent who’d able to use pretty much anything as a deadly weapon, Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle aka Punisher, a former military vet and vigilante, Vincent D’Onofrio as Wilson Fisk aka Kingpin and of course Charlie Cox aka lawyer and vigilante, the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen, the Daredevil himself.
