On the eve of its anticipated premiere, Marvel and Netflix have rolled out the final trailer for Daredevil season 2, bringing Hell’s Kitchen to its knees.
Stoking that fire – and ensuring Charlie Cox’s title hero has his hands full – are newcomers Punisher and Elektra, and recent on set videos showcase that each villain means business.
[zerg]Yes, Vincent D’Onofrio’s scenery-chewing Wilson Fisk may be behind bars, but Matt Murdock’s masked hero’s origins tale is just getting started.
If the inaugural season of Daredevil revealed a darker and more gritty side to the Marvel universe, then the addition of Jon Bernthal’s gun-toting maniac and Elodie Yung’s menacing former flame will ramp up the stakes quite considerably. Indeed, that “flawless casting” is part and parcel of season 2’s success, according to our own Isaac Feldberg, and you can get the lowdown on season 2 ahead of time through our glowing review.
Daredevil season 2 will wage war on Hell’s Kitchen come Friday, March 18. Deborah Ann Woll, Elden Henson, and Rosario Dawson also star.
Just when Matt thinks he is bringing order back to the city, new forces are rising in Hell’s Kitchen. Now the Man Without Fear must take on a new adversary in Frank Castle and face an old flame — Elektra Natchios.
Bigger problems emerge when Frank Castle, a man looking for vengeance, is reborn as The Punisher, a man who takes justice into his own hands in Matt’s neighborhood. Meanwhile, Matt must balance his duty to his community as a lawyer and his dangerous life as the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen, facing a life-altering choice that forces him to truly understand what it means to be a hero.
