Daredevil, Punisher, and the complete Defenders saga are now officially incorporated into the MCU timeline on Disney Plus.

Marvel’s Daredevil, Punisher, Jessica Jones, and the entire Defenders Saga have been officially integrated into the MCU timeline on Disney+. Previously considered separate from the main MCU continuity, these Netflix shows now contribute approximately 161 hours of content to the MCU canon. This move follows earlier hints of connectivity, such as appearances by Daredevil and Kingpin in recent MCU projects. Despite the influx of TV shows, concerns about diluting the franchise’s focus persist, with some noting the significant difference in runtime between Phase 4 and Phase 1. Amidst this, fans are grappling with staying updated, and recent box office performance for The Marvels suggests challenges in maintaining audience engagement. Charlie Cox’s return as Daredevil continues to generate buzz, with plans for a new series, Daredevil: Born Again, in development after a brief hiatus.
