Marvel Releases Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 Trailer; Jessica Jones Returns
Disney+'s Daredevil: Born Again season 2 premieres March 24, 2026, and the trailer shows Krysten Ritter's Jessica Jones teaming with Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock.
Overview
Marvel released a trailer on Jan. 27, 2026, that teases Krysten Ritter's return as Jessica Jones and shows Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock preparing to confront Mayor Wilson Fisk, the studio said.
The eight-episode season will premiere on March 24, 2026, and continues after season 1 left Wilson Fisk as mayor and Matt Murdock organizing an anti-Fisk resistance, creators said.
The trailer and press materials confirm Krysten Ritter's Jessica Jones appears and that Matthew Lillard joins as Mr. Charles alongside returning Deborah Ann Woll, Ayelet Zurer, Wilson Bethel and Margarita Levieva, the studio said.
Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle is not scheduled for season 2 and will headline a Punisher spinoff and appear in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, producers told reporters.
A third season is already in production and is expected to arrive in 2027, creators Dario Scardapane, Chris Ord and Matt Corman said.
Analysis
Center-leaning sources frame the trailer as celebratory and action-driven by using hyperbolic, evaluative language (e.g., 'ballsiest,' 'praise Murdock') and privileging vigilante heroism and conflict with Fisk. Editorial choices—tone, selective emphasis on violent set-pieces and returning characters—shape enthusiasm, while quoted plot details remain source content rather than framing.
