“Wilson Bethel Returns as Bullseye in Disney+ MCU Series Daredevil: Born Again”
Wilson Bethel is set to reprise his role as Bullseye in the upcoming Disney+ MCU series Daredevil: Born Again. The news, reported by ComicBook.com and confirmed by Deadline, adds another familiar face to the cast of the highly anticipated series. Bethel, known for his portrayal of Bullseye (aka Benjamin Poindexter) in Netflix’s Daredevil series, will once again bring his villainous character to life opposite Charlie Cox’s titular hero. While Bethel appeared as Bullseye in season three of Netflix’s Daredevil, this marks his return to the role after a hiatus. He is expected to feature in three episodes of the new series, joining the likes of Vincent D’Onofrio’s Wilson Fisk/Kingpin and Jon Bernthal’s Frank Castle/Punisher.
Season 3 of Daredevil introduced Bullseye to the Netflix MCU shows, providing a compelling and tragic origin story that revitalized the character. However, details about his storyline in Daredevil: Born Again remain undisclosed.
Charlie Cox has clarified that Daredevil: Born Again will not simply retell the Frank Miller comic storyline. Instead, it will offer a fresh take on the character’s journey within the MCU continuity. Recently, it was confirmed that the original Daredevil series is part of the MCU canon, setting the stage for Daredevil: Born Again’s connection to the larger Marvel universe.
Daredevil: Born Again is part of the MCU’s Phase 5, but an official release date has not yet been announced.
