Wilson Bethel Teases 'A New Dex' for Bullseye in DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN Season 2 — GeekTyrant
Daredevil: Born Again is set to return to Disney+ next year with Season 2, and Wilson Bethel is set to return as Benjamin 'Dex' Poindexter, better known as Bullseye. After his debut in Daredevil Season 3, Bethel is back, and according to the actor, fans should brace themselves for a very different version of the lethal marksman. Bethel's comeback wasn't always in the cards. Originally, Born Again didn't include Bullseye, but the creative overhaul brought the villain back into the fold and judging by Bethel's excitement, that was the right call. Speaking with Collider, the actor reflected on what it meant to reprise this iconic role: 'As it happened, getting that call and getting the opportunity to return to that show and return to that character, who I just absolutely adore playing, and I think it's so much fun to play, it's just been one of the great surprising gifts of my entire career. We just finished shooting the second season. I get to do so much fun, insane stuff in this new season.' Bethel went on to tease even bigger plans for the future: 'I'm so excited for fans to see it. I hope that we have several, if not many more, years of wonderful story in store for Bullseye and for the whole Daredevil crew. It's such a great, lovely group of people on that show, in front of and behind the camera. I just feel honored to be part of it.' As for what fans can expect when the new season drops? Bethel hints that we're about to see a whole new layer of Dex. 'The Dex of Season 2 is a new Dex that we haven't really seen yet,' he teased. 'I'm very excited for people to see it, and I'm curious to see how they weigh in on it. There are some elements of him in this season, some sides of his personality, that we haven't seen yet, and I'm thrilled for people to get to see it.' While details remain under wraps, leaked set photos suggest Daredevil may end up forming an uneasy alliance with the man who murdered Foggy Nelson. Considering Bullseye is still on the run after his failed attempt to kill Wilson Fisk, this could make for one of the most intense story arcs yet. In other Daredevil: Born Again news, Vincent D'Onofrio recently confirmed he has wrapped filming as Kingpin, and with D23 around the corner, there's a good chance the first footage will debut there. Season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again will consist of eight episodes and is slated to premiere on Disney+ in March 2026.

Target's ‘Adorable' Halloween Find Is Already Flying Off Shelves
If there were a contest for the most popular Halloween trick-or-treating basket, Target may have just won the whole thing with its exclusive Hyde and EEK! Boutique find. It may only be July, but rumor has it that on Sunday, the nationwide retailer added a few new seasonal items to its online store, including a "so cute" trick-or-treating basket that reportedly sold out in minutes. Unlike other hot items this season, the popular find isn't "summerween" related but a 12-inch plush replica of Bullseye, Target's iconic mascot. Related:Target's 'Top-Selling' $5 Backpack Is Heading Back to Stores This Year "Y'all Target 'Summerween' is here and I NEED this new large plush Bullseye basket!" one influencer wrote alongside a promotional image of the basket and a few other early fall finds. "I love that basket!" a second gushed. Several others declared it a "need" in response to a separate post, where it was also deemed "so cute." One more shopper claimed to have already scooped up the novelty basket in the little time they had before it was sold out. "It was online this morning and then sold out quickly once the word spread," the Instagram user said, "I ordered one before it sold out." Although the $15 item is currently marked as out of stock on the Target website, it's only July, so in our expert opinion, the likelihood that it will be restocked before the fall is pretty good. Retail influencer Markie_devo also reported that the plush basket wasn't due to be released until later this week (on or around July 16), so those who really want it should sign up for in-app notifications so they can act immediately once it's available again. A spokesperson for Target was not immediately available for comment. Next:Walmart Is Selling 'So Cute' Summer-Inspired Halloween Decor Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved
