UPDATE: Production on Daredevil: Born Again series is set to shoot for 11 months in 2023.
“They said to me, ‘We’re going to be shooting in 2023’,” Cox said. “I said, ‘Great, when?’ They said, ‘All 2023’. I start shooting in February and finish in December,” Charlie Cox told NME.
Cox also confirmed that the series will keep the dark tone of the original Netflix series but perhaps with less gore.
“My opinion is this character works best when he’s geared towards a slightly more mature audience. My instinct is that on Disney+ it will be dark but it probably won’t be as gory. I would say to [people hoping the Disney+ show copies the Netflix show], we’ve done that. Let’s take the things that really worked, but can we broaden? Can we appeal to a slightly younger audience without losing what we’ve learned about what works?” said Cox.
Daredevil: Born Again won’t hit Disney+ until 2024.
