‘Daredevil: Born Again’ Teases Darkest Moments Yet with Bullseye’s Return & a Terrifying New Villain – Muse
The upcoming Daredevil: Born Again is shaping up to be an exciting continuation of the beloved series, bringing back key characters while introducing dangerous new threats. Fans were thrilled when it was confirmed that Karen Page (Deborah Ann Woll) and Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson) would return.
Another familiar face making a comeback is Wilson Bethel’s Bullseye. The villain played a major role in Daredevil Season 3, proving to be one of Matt’s most dangerous enemies.
The last time audiences saw him, he was severely injured and undergoing surgery to have metal implanted in his body. Amanat believes Bullseye is the perfect antagonist to return, saying, “He just felt like the most appropriate villain to be returning. He was so great in the last season, and I’m so intrigued by him as a character in general.”
While Kingpin (Vincent D’Onofrio) remains the show’s primary villain, the series will also introduce Muse, a chilling new antagonist from the comics. Known as “Vincent Van Gore,” Muse is a masked artist who creates horrifying artwork using human blood. The character will be portrayed by an undisclosed actor, and according to Amanat, his presence will take the show into unsettling territory.
“He is a darker character,” Amanat warned. “Those are some dark episodes for sure. I would tell people to be mindful of any kind of triggers because Muse is a serial killer. He is not a good guy by any means, but some of the sequences with him are pretty compelling and creepy.”
Even before Season 1 has aired, the creative team behind Daredevil: Born Again is already preparing for Season 2. The showrunners, directors Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead, are deep into pre-production, surrounded by concept art and detailed plans for what’s coming next.
According to writer and executive producer Dario Scardapane, the team has learned a lot from the challenges they faced in Season 1 and now have a clearer vision. He described Season 2 as “really part 2 of Season 1,” allowing the story to grow in bigger and more unexpected ways. He also hinted that Muse’s storyline will have a lasting impact beyond just one season.
With the return of fan-favorite characters, the addition of Bullseye, and the arrival of the nightmarish Muse, Daredevil: Born Again is set to be a thrilling and intense ride. Fans won’t have to wait much longer to see how it all unfolds!
