Get ready, Marvel fans! Another familiar face is gearing up for a comeback in the ever-expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe. This time, it's a return that's sure to excite fans of the street-level heroes: Jack Duquesne, also known as Swordsman, is set to reappear in Daredevil: Born Again season 2. This is exciting news!
This confirmation comes straight from the actor himself, Tony Dalton, during an interview with Josh Wilding of ComicBookMovie. Dalton, who last graced our screens as Swordsman in the 2021 Disney+ series Hawkeye, shared some details about his return.
"I did a bunch of action stuff for this next one that’s coming out of Daredevil, and man, I got hurt. I got hurt hard… I think I must have chipped a rib or something because for two or three weeks I was in bed. I had bruises all over me.”
It sounds like Dalton is throwing himself back into the action. But here's where it gets interesting: Daredevil: Born Again is intended to continue the story of the titular superhero, played by Charlie Cox. Cox has been a consistent presence in the MCU, making his character integral to the universe's overarching story.
So, what does this mean for Daredevil: Born Again? What role will Swordsman play? And how will his return impact the narrative? We don't have all the answers yet, but one thing is certain: fans are eagerly awaiting the second season, scheduled to premiere on Disney+ on March 4, 2026.
This is a big deal because it reinforces the interconnectedness of the MCU. It shows that even characters from the less-spotlighted corners of the universe can return. What do you think about this casting choice? Do you think Swordsman will be a friend or foe to Daredevil? Let us know in the comments!
