The return of Daredevil and The Punisher to the Marvel Cinematic Universe was praised by director Marc Jobst, who is well-known for his work on the Marvel programmes on Netflix. Jobst emphasised his delight at the potential for further stories to be told using these characters, who are obviously popular with viewers. In Netflix’s Daredevil, Charlie Cox and Jon Bernthal, who played The Punisher and Daredevil, respectively, made their MCU debuts. The Punisher later had his own spinoff. After the agreement between Netflix and Marvel expired, their future became dubious. Nevertheless, Cox made a triumphant comeback in Spider-Man: No Way Home. She then made more cameos in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. Additionally, Bernthal will make a comeback in Daredevil: Born Again. Director of two Daredevil, Luke Cage, and The Punisher episodes, offered his opinions on these characters’ MCU comebacks in an interview.
Apart from the stories it allows us to tell, Jobst added, “Oh, they are simply such terrific. That appeared to resonate with an audience.The finest superhero stories are all metaphorical; you may have a great time with them, but ultimately, they do reflect something about our world, who we are, and what we hope to become. We had not yet done because we wanted to be able to tell more of those stories and use the Marvel Universe to inspire new ideas. None of us; we were all aware that we were not done. ‘Ah, but there’s more to do here,’ we all thought. For each of those roles, as well as the actors I had a close relationship with on those series. Beginning with Cox in Spider-Man: No Way Home and Vincent D’Onofrio as Wilson Fisk/Kingpin in Hawkeye, Marvel began merging the different Netflix characters in 2021. Following these appearances, it was announced that Cox and D’Onofrio will return for Disney+’s Daredevil: Born Again, which has a two-season order for 18 episodes, as well as Bernthal’s comeback.
Other characters, including Finn Jones’ Iron Fist, Mike Colter’s Luke Cage, and Krysten Ritter’s Jessica Jones, are yet unknown. According to some speculations, Daredevil: Born Again may build up Jones’ comeback, and other claims claim it might occur in the future Echo episode. Ritter has expressed interest in playing the same part again and teased fans on social media. Colter, in contrast, has acted more circumspectly, recognising that his time has perhaps gone but yet believing that he has more tales to tell. Jones might return in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings 2 because he is ready to reprise his role as Iron Fist. The production of Daredevil: Born Again has been suspended due to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes, therefore information on The Defenders’ comeback may be delayed. Jobst’s enthusiasm is representative of the broad excitement for the reintroduction of these characters, which suggests possible new trajectories for the MCU and more investigation of characters that have struck a chord with fans. Jobst continued, “God bless them, is what I say,” expressing appreciation and hope for the future of these cherished people.
