Born Again could recapture the gritty edge of the original Netflix series. When it premiered on the 2025 TV schedule for those with a Disney+ subscription, it surprised many, emerging as the most violent show on the platform and earning praise from both critics and fans.

Born Again star Charlie Cox opened up about his unexpected reaction to one of the show’s most talked-about episodes, and how his perspective didn’t exactly align with the audience’s. Cox explained: “We shot that before the strike.

The episode in question features Cox’s Matt Murdock, aka Daredevil, caught in the middle of a bank robbery while trying to get a business loan for his law firm. Cox called it his “least favorite” of the season, adding that he “pushed back against it as much as I felt was possible.”
