Wilson Bethel, one of the stars of ‘Daredevil: Born Again,’ has confirmed that there is indeed a time jump between the end of ‘Daredevil’ season three on Netflix and the start of the upcoming Disney+ series. Bethel also shared how some of the roles he’s taken on since playing Bullseye helped prepare him for his return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and how he brings those experiences to ‘Daredevil: Born Again.’
“So there’s kind of like this funny thing stepping back after five years where ‘Born Again’ will pick up with that amount of time having transpired. The show doesn’t pick up the day after we last saw it. It picks up five years later. And so in theory, these are characters who have all lived five years of life and all of the twists and turns that you take in the meantime. So whether or not even those stories are necessarily on screen, there’s just that little extra bit of life in there, which I think is… as an actor, it gives you an opportunity to bring whatever your own journey has been in that time and they get sort of a little longer in the tooth.”
‘Daredevil: Born Again’ is set to air next spring, bringing back fan-favorite Marvel characters like Matt Murdock, Wilson Fisk, Karen Page, Foggy Nelson, Punisher, and Bullseye.
Bethel attended Fan Expo San Francisco, where he spoke with Charlie Cox about their careers and ‘Daredevil: Born Again.’ Bethel reprises his role as Bullseye, one of Daredevil’s main antagonists from the comics.
