Daredevil Season 4 Rumored To Start Filming Later This Year

Daredevil season 4 could begin production in 2022, as new rumors suggest the revival/reboot starts filming later this year. Premiering in 2015 on Netflix, Daredevil marked the first Marvel TV show for the streaming service as part of a larger plan for the Defenders universe. Charlie Cox starred as Matt Murdock a.k.a. Daredevil for three seasons and The Defenders crossover, but Netflix surprisingly canceled the series in 2018. This news came despite positive reviews, Daredevil season 3's ending leaving room for Matt's story to continue, and those involved expecting season 4 to happen.

After years of Marvel not being able to use Hell's Kitchen's protector, Marvel Studios is now bringing him back into the fold. Cox returned as Daredevil in Spider-Man: No Way Home, which is expected to be the first of many appearances in Marvel Cinematic Universe projects. On top of rumors he'll return for She-Hulk and Echo, fans have long wondered if Marvel Studios could still make Daredevil season 4 happen. The possibility of this happening became greater after Disney confirmed the Marvel Netflix shows are moving to Disney+ in March 2022. It now appears some plans could already be in motion.

According to Murphy's Multiverse, Disney recently formed a new production LLC (limited liability company), which are meant to track accounting on different projects, that is titled "Blind Faith Productions LLC." The new LLC is believed to be for Marvel Studios, and the "Blind Faith" name seems to be a clear Daredevil reference, since he is both blind and a devout Catholic. If "Blind Faith Productions LLC" is for Daredevil, it indicates Marvel has plans for either a movie or series starring the character. Following this news, Geeks World Wide's KC Walsh reported that it is a TV series, and that the unofficial Daredevil season 4 will begin filming later this year. Screen Rant has reached out to Disney for comment on this information.

Even if this is new project is another season of a show starring Cox's Daredevil, it is still unclear if it will really be the Daredevil season 4 many want. Cox has said that he's open to a new season of the show being less violent than it was on Netflix. He's also said that it would make more sense for Daredevil season 4 to not be a direct continuation of the Netflix show's story, and instead pick up years later. In that regard, he prefers a soft-reboot for the MCU's Daredevil.

If "Blind Faith Productions LLC" is Daredevil season 4 in some fashion, the prospect of it starting production later this year is quite exciting. It should mean that audiences get a steady stream of Cox's Matt Murdock and Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin for the next few years. This would also likely indicate that Marvel's new Daredevil project will be officially announced at some point in 2022, as it'd make sense for them to confirm the series before production begins. As a result, there could be a lot more Daredevil season 4 news to come throughout this year.
