Following the massive success of Daredevil: Born Again, Marvel Studios may plan to revive another TV show from Netflix’s discontinued Defenders Saga. Fans are eagerly speculating which series could return. Excitement grew when Jon Bernthal confirmed he would appear as Frank Castle, also known as The Punisher, in a special presentation on Disney+. Moreover, he will star in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which premieres on July 31, 2026.
This potential revival highlights Marvel’s growing focus on bringing Netflix-era heroes into the broader MCU. Fans are excited about the new storylines and character crossovers this could create.
Marvel Set to Bring Back Jessica Jones in MCU
According to insider Daniel Richtman, Marvel Studios is reportedly developing a new Jessica Jones project. This comes more than six years after Netflix canceled the original show. The news arrives ahead of Krysten Ritter’s highly anticipated MCU debut in Daredevil: Born Again Season 2. The season will reunite Ritter’s Jessica Jones with Charlie Cox’s Matt Murdock/Daredevil.
At this time, it remains unclear whether the rumored project will be a full series or a special presentation. However, last year, reports suggested that Marvel Studios had started searching for writers for Jessica Jones Season 4, a project initially teased by Marvel executive Brad Winderbaum. As Winderbaum previously said:
“It’s coming maybe sooner than you think.”
Marvel fans are already speculating about possible story directions, including revisiting Jessica’s detective work and exploring her relationships with other Defenders. This revival could also introduce new characters to the MCU while expanding its darker, more grounded side.
What to Expect From Daredevil: Born Again Season 2
Daredevil: Born Again is executive produced by Dario Scardapane, who is also serving as the showrunner. Season 2 will feature Krysten Ritter, alongside new cast members Matthew Lillard and Lili Taylor.
Following Ritter’s confirmed role, fans have begun speculating that other members of The Defenders might return in Season 2, including Mike Colter’s Luke Cage and Finn Jones’ Iron Fist. The new season is set to debut on March 4, 2026, generating anticipation for Marvel fans worldwide.
Social media is already buzzing with excitement over the news. Fans are expressing hope that other Netflix shows, such as Luke Cage or Iron Fist, could also be revived in the near future. Many are praising Marvel Studios for recognizing the popularity of these older characters. They also appreciate how Marvel is weaving them into the ongoing MCU storyline.
Moreover, the return of Jessica Jones opens doors for complex storylines that explore darker themes. These are themes the MCU has rarely tackled in its Disney+ shows. As a result, fans anticipate a mix of suspense, action, and character-driven drama in the upcoming projects.
