‘Daredevil: Born Again' Season 2 Spoilers Fly With New Set Leaks

‘Daredevil: Born Again' Season 2 Spoilers Fly With New Set Leaks

Forbes28-03-2025

Daredevil: Born Again
Disney
I've previously said that I have never seen a show attempting to spoil itself ahead of time as much as Daredevil: Born Again, whether that be through its own trailers or cast interviews, at least one of which telegraphed a big death outright at the start of the series.
Now, of course, there are more spoilers for Daredevil: Born Again season 2, now that it's filming in New York, this time through set shots that Disney does not seem to be trying to prevent. It's somewhat unavoidable when shooting in a big city, I suppose.
These are plastered all over my timeline given that I enjoy the current season of Born Again, so the algorithm wants to just show me all these season 2 images I could have done without. Plus, there are other supposed leaks we know about.
So, if you want the spoilers, read on, as I might as well talk about them since I couldn't avoid them in the first place.
The main thing shown here is Matt's new suit, which is not only pitch black, unlike his others and pulling from one of his comic suit variants, but perhaps most importantly, he finally has the interlocked 'DD' logo, which he will have gone four seasons without, even if maybe he gets it in the Born Again season 1 finale. The suit does look very cool, and these set shots are so clear they may as well be production stills.
There are other spoilers we know about already, some cast-driven, some insider-driven. I love Deborah Ann Woll but wow, she sure loves talking about things she shouldn't be talking about. First, she said that she would be in season 2, both revealing she wouldn't be killed off in season 1, but also would be a big part of that story. Second, she said her and Foggy would be back. This has lent some weight to the idea that Foggy may have faked his death like in a comic run, or he may just show up in some flashbacks, which does seem more likely at this point.
Daredevil's own showrunner, Dario Scardapane, said that despite being a main season 1 villain, Muse will return for season 2. Given that we just had our first real Muse feature this week, and there are only a couple episodes left this season, it stands to reason that yes, his story may not be wrapped up that quickly. Still, why say that now?

This isn't confirmed but it seems exceedingly likely that after season 1, Jon Bernthal's Punisher won't be back. He has a 'feature' mini-movie planned on Disney Plus later, but Bernthal is exceptionally busy with a number of projects, most pressingly Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, which of course would no doubt take precedent over anything else.
That's what we think we know for now, and sure, I will look forward to seeing that suit in action, even if we have a pretty clear shot of it now.

40th Guadalajara Film Festival Opens With Mexico's First Stop-Motion Animated Feature ‘I Am Frankelda' as It Launches New Genre Sidebar

The Guadalajara International Film Festival (FICG) is proudly celebrating its 40th edition with a milestone: Mexico's first-ever stop-motion animated feature, 'I Am Frankelda' ('Soy Frankelda'), which opens the festival. Running June 6-14, the country's most prominent film festival launches a new genre section that features five pics led by Pablo Stoll's zombie dramedy 'Summer Hit' ('El tema del verano') and Emilio Portes' 'Don't Leave the Kids Alone.' This new by invitation only sidebar would be the 10th competitive section of the fest. More from Variety Taiwan Makes Its Mark at Annecy With VR Innovation and Diverse Animation Slate Disney to Preview 'Zootopia 2,' 'Elio,' 'Toy Story 5' and More at This Year's Annecy Festival 'Cat in the Hat' Adaptation, 'Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Deathwatch' Series and Sébastien Laudenbach's 'Carmen' Headline Annecy's Work in Progress Lineup 'It's never been easy to put on a festival in Mexico – there are a lot of people who don't really understand the work that goes into it. But what truly matters is that, for 40 years, through changing tides, shifting governments and opposition from both inside and out, we've kept the festival alive. And what we've come to realize is that this festival deserves to last another hundred years,' said festival director Estrella Araiza. Written and directed by the brothers Roy and Arturo Ambriz, 'I Am Frankelda' which world premiered at Annecy, follows the travails of 19th century Mexican writer Frankelda who struggles to get her dark tales recognized. When her creations come to life, she fights alongside the tormented Prince Herneval to stop sinister forces from upending reality. Among the festival highlights is a host of features from guest country of honor, Portugal, led by Maria de Medeiros ('Pulp Fiction') who presents her 2000 directorial debut, 'April Captains.' Iberoamerican pics in competition include Berlinale title 'Deaf' by Spain's Eva Libertad, 'The Best Mother in the World' from Brazil's Anna Muylaert and the Dominican Republic's 'Tiguere' by José María Cabral. Spain's Oscar-nominated J. A. Bayona ('Society of the Snow') will be honored with a retrospective of his work, including an outdoor screening of his horror gem, 'The Orphanage,' at the city's emblematic Belén Pantheon. The festival bestows its honorary Mayahuel de Plata to actress Dolores Heredia ('Pedro Paramo,' 'Vantage Point') who celebrates her nearly four decades in the biz. 'Instructions Not Included' producer Monica Lozano receives the Industry Mayahuel tribute while 'A Fantastic Woman' star Daniela Vega is recognized with the Premio Maguey Queer Award. Meanwhile, Mexican electropop artist Denisse Guerrero will be presented with a lifetime achievement award, the Premio Maguey Trayectoria. The industry section, led by Ximena Urrutia, is chock a block with various activities including large-scale Co-production Meetings, pics-in-post pitch program Guadalajara Construye, series in development section Episodio 0, video game space FICGGames Playtest, a doculab, networking platform Talents, and of course, its market. 'This year, we're launching something new that's especially meaningful to me: the Schools' Corner. As a graduate of the Centro de Capacitación Cinematográfica (CCC) in Mexico, I know firsthand how confusing it can be to leave film school without a clear path forward or knowing how to get a project off the ground. That's why we created this space – this year, it's primarily focused on Mexico and brings together many of the country's key film schools, from major institutions like CCC to several smaller ones as well,' said Urrutia. According to Urrutia, each participating school will bring 10 handpicked students to the festival, with over 100 already confirmed to attend. 'We're going to walk them through how each of our programs works – how to apply, what applying actually entails, and how a project needs to be structured to be seriously considered. In addition, they'll have access to our virtual market, specifically the one-on-one meeting platform, which has been working remarkably well for the past few years. Last year alone, we hosted 2,700 professional one-on-one meetings,' she pointed out. Said Araiza: 'What matters most to us is helping people understand that we will always be a space where new filmmakers can grow. A place where emerging careers can take off, where people can discover and learn about cinema– not just for film lovers, but also for those who dream of making a life in film.'

A 'Home Improvement' Clip Is Going Viral For Exposing Just How Backwards We Have Gone As A Society

JIM WATSON / AFP via Getty Images ABC Photo Archives / Disney General Entertainment Content via Getty Images For reference, "Home Improvement" followed the life of DIY TV show host Tim Taylor, played by Tim Allen, his wife, Jill, and their three sons. It originally aired on ABC between 1991 and 1999. ABC via Disney+ 'I don't need Angela to make me a sandwich,' Tim tells Brad, who insists: 'She doesn't mind,' which Angela echoes. Tim reiterates: 'I don't need you to make me a sandwich, thanks. ABC via Disney+ ABC via Disney+ ABC via Disney+ ABC via Disney+ When Tim says that he does, Brad asks: 'And you think that's good?' and Tim reasons: 'Well, I don't know, it works for me… But maybe having Angela as your sandwich girl works for you, your whole life is sandwiches!' ABC via Disney+ Since being posted to TikTok, this clip has been liked almost 200k times, and racked up thousands of comments — with many of them saying the same thing. 'this would be called woke today,' a popular comment reads. Somebody else echoed: 'They tried to do a story like this these days MAGA would call it 'woke' and call for a boycott of everyone involved.' 'Funny how back then the audience would have perceived the dad as a 'good man', whereas now the same audience would call him 'woke/soft/leftist,'' another user added. 'now you would have 300 guys complaining it's woke,' one more agreed, while somebody else observed: 'It's almost like 'wokeness' that people keep referring to has always been there, it just wasn't wrapped up in inflated egos fueled by political rhetoric.' And one more concluded: 'I got so many of my lessons in being a man from 90s sitcoms. Just human lessons, not activists lessons.'
