Three Major Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 Trailer Spoilers
Matt and Karen Reignite Their Relationship
The Season 2 trailer confirmed what many fans have been hoping for since the conclusion of Season 1: Matt Murdock and Karen Page are reconnecting. During the first season, Matt’s romantic focus shifted to Dr. Heather Glenn (Margarita Levieva), who served as the therapist for both Wilson and Vanessa Fisk (Ayelet Zurer).
The NYCC footage shows Karen placing a vinyl record on a turntable while Matt relaxes in bed, smiling. The two are later seen slow dancing, nearly sharing a kiss, and even sparring playfully. However, their reunion takes a dark turn when a sudden explosion causes Matt to collapse, with Karen cradling him as he struggles to breathe. The moment highlights both the tenderness and turmoil of their bond, suggesting their relationship will remain emotionally complex in Season 2.
Showrunner Dario Scardapane has since confirmed that Matt and Heather’s relationship ends after the Season 1 finale. Heather will return in Season 2 in a new role as Fisk’s “mental health czar,” making her one of several figures connected to the New York City administration.
Foggy Nelson Returns via Flashbacks — or More
Elden Henson’s Foggy Nelson briefly appears in the trailer, sparking excitement at NYCC. Though killed in Season 1 by Bullseye under Vanessa Fisk’s orders, his presence suggests the series will revisit his history with Matt.
- Some fans speculate these scenes are flashbacks
- Others theorize Foggy may have survived under witness protection
- Either way, his appearance deepens the emotional stakes of Season 2
Jessica Jones Joins the Fight Against Fisk
Jessica Jones makes a thrilling MCU return, participating in key action sequences alongside Daredevil.
Trailer highlights include:
- Visiting an injured Matt in a church and quipping, “Hope you can walk,” before helping him stand
- Taking down a member of the Anti-Vigilante Task Force in combat
- Fighting alongside Matt, solidifying her role in the resistance
Ritter described stepping back into the role as gritty and seamless, saying it felt like “no time had passed” when reuniting with Cox. This reunion rekindles one of Marvel’s most beloved partnerships.
With Fisk tightening his grip on New York City and old allies returning, Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 promises a darker, more emotionally intense story filled with renewed relationships between Matt, Karen, and other characters.
