Daredevil: Born Again – A Record-Breaking Return to Disney+
Alright, Marvel fans, it's time to talk about the latest sensation that's taken Disney+ by storm— Daredevil: Born Again ! The numbers are in, and they’re nothing short of spectacular. Within its first five days of release, the highly anticipated revival pulled in a staggering 7.5 million views . That’s right! The Devil of Hell’s Kitchen is back, and audiences are showing up in full force.
For those who’ve been waiting for Matt Murdock’s return, this is a huge moment. Charlie Cox reprises his role as the blind lawyer-by-day, vigilante-by-night, bringing back the same grit and complexity that made the original Daredevil series on Netflix such a hit. And of course, what’s Daredevil without his arch-nemesis? Vincent D’Onofrio is back as the formidable Wilson Fisk, aka Kingpin, and their dynamic is just as intense as ever.

The show’s debut has officially made it Disney+’s biggest streaming launch of the year , outperforming other major releases. Just for comparison, Paradise , a Sterling K. Brown drama on Hulu and Disney+, pulled in 7 million views over nine days, while Agatha All Along had 9.3 million in its first week. Considering the tight competition, Daredevil’s numbers prove just how much fans have been craving a proper return to this dark, street-level storytelling.
But it’s not just about the numbers—the Daredevil revival is already being hailed as one of the strongest entries in the Marvel TV lineup. Critics are praising the series for its complex storytelling and unflinching approach to character development. One reviewer even described it as “a sledgehammer to its former Netflix world” , highlighting how this reboot reinvents its characters while staying true to their roots.
And let’s not forget the rest of the cast. We’re seeing some familiar faces return alongside Cox and D’Onofrio, including Deborah Ann Woll, Elden Henson, and Jon Bernthal , whose role as Frank Castle, aka The Punisher, is already generating major buzz. Bernthal has assured fans that this version of Castle will be as raw and intense as ever, promising “it will not be Punisher-lite.” That’s exactly the kind of energy fans have been hoping for!
Behind the scenes, Dario Scardapane serves as the showrunner, with Marvel boss Kevin Feige overseeing production alongside a stellar lineup of executive producers. With directors like Justin Benson, Aaron Moorhead, and Michael Cuesta in the mix, the series is in good hands.
So, what’s next? With the show off to such a massive start, it’s only a matter of time before we see how this new era of Daredevil unfolds. The darker, grittier tone that fans loved in the Netflix version seems to be intact, and Disney+ seems more willing than ever to embrace mature content. If you haven’t started watching yet, now’s the time to dive in!
One thing’s for sure: Daredevil: Born Again is not just a comeback—it’s a statement. The street-level heroes of the MCU are back, and they mean business. Let’s see where this journey takes us!
