Born Again’ Season 2 Will Build on Matt and Jessica Jones’ Brilliant ‘Defenders’ Pairing

Back in 2017, The Defenders paid off on several comic book team-ups that had been years in the making on Netflix across its various Marvel streaming shows—putting together Luke Cage and Danny Rand, turning Colleen Wing and Misty Knight into the Daughters of the Dragon, things that comic book readers knew to expect and enjoy. And yet, the absolute best pairing in the whole series ended up being the delectably abrasive banter between Jessica Jones and Matt Murdock.

Alas, we’d never get more of it after Defenders came and went, with the slow but steady cancellation of the Netflix-Marvel shows, followed by the rise of Disney’s own streaming network over the course of the next few years. That is, until Marvel revived Daredevil with Born Again and then decided it should bring Ms. Jones along for the ride in season two.

“Just by the nature of who Jessica is and who Matt is, they both give as much as they get,” Charlie Cox told Entertainment Weekly of the duo’s vibe in both Defenders and Born Again, as part of a preview that gave us our first official preview of Jessica’s return in season two. “I’m not sure we were aware of it when we were shooting [Defenders]. So we’ve been really waiting for this opportunity for so long now to put these two on screen together and have more fun with them.”

Thankfully, the opportunity to do so will be pretty involved. According to Born Again producer and Marvel TV head Brad Winderbaum, Jessica will play a similarly sized role to Jon Bernthal’s return as the Punisher in Born Again‘s first season and will definitely keep the tone between her and Matt similar to their Defenders screentime.

“We both talked about it being important to play some of the hits, as it were, make sure that we have that same dynamic,” Winderbaum added. “Tongue in cheek, take the piss out of each other, but also get down to business and make sure that we’re serving the story appropriately.”

Daredevil: Born Again returns to Disney+, with Alias Investigation’s finest in tow, sometime in March 2026.
