[edit]Production
[edit]Development
[edit]At San Diego Comic-Con International 2016, Marvel and Netflix revealed the series had been renewed for a third season, with the expectation that Doug Petrie and Marco Ramirez would return as showrunners from the second season.[6] In October 2017, it was announced that Erik Oleson would replace Petrie and Ramirez as showrunner for the season.[2]
Writing
[edit]The ending of the miniseries The Defenders, which sees Matt Murdock waking up in a convent surrounded by nuns after being presumed dead, implied elements of the season would be inspired by the "Born Again" story arc.[7][8] Charlie Cox was excited to adapt "Born Again", calling it "an amazing story" and that the implications of the story on the season "would be very exciting". He cautioned, however, that it would not be a "page-for-page" adaption, "because if you do [that], then you become a foregone conclusion. There may be elements from "Born Again", but I'm sure there will be elements that are unfamiliar and surprising and different in order for the show to be compelling to fans who know the comics very well."[9]
Casting
[edit]Cox, Woll, Henson, and D'Onofrio all return in the season, reprising their roles as Matt Murdock / Daredevil, Karen Page, Franklin "Foggy" Nelson, and Wilson Fisk / Kingpin, respectively.[2] In November 2017, Wilson Bethel was cast as a new series regular, an FBI agent,[3] and in January 2018, Joanne Whalley was revealed to have been cast as Maggie, a nun who cares deeply about Murdock's safety,[10] and was mentioned at the end of The Defenders.[7] Jay Ali was cast as Rahul "Ray" Nadeem, another FBI agent, by March.[4]
Amy Rutberg also reprises her role as Marci Stahl in the season.[5]
Filming
[edit]Filming for the season began on November 13, 2017, in New York City.[11] A week of filming for the season in March 2018 took place in the town of Windham, New York, with set photos revealing that the town was representing Fagan Corners, Vermont,[12] the hometown of Karen Page in the comics.[13] The production paid for the renovation of a local store to portray a diner for the series, and used the town's emergency helicopter pad. Additional filming locations for the week included nearby ski areas and a country club.[12]
Release
[edit]The third season of Daredevil is scheduled to be released in 2018 on the streaming service Netflix, worldwide,[6][2] in Ultra HD 4K.[14] Initially thought to be releasing in 2017,[6] Netflix COO Ted Sarandos stated in July 2016 that the season would not debut until 2018 at the earliest, after The Defenders released on August 18, 2017.[15][16] Cox was hopeful the season would debut in 2018,[9] and in October 2017, Marvel revealed the season was indeed expected to release in 2018.[2]
