The trailer for Daredevil: Born Again finally dropped and it offered fans a taste of what to expect from the upcoming series. One thing that caught the attention of fans was a brief glimpse at Michael Gandolfini’s character. Accordingly, fans have become curious about who Gandolfini is playing in Born Again.
So, what character is Michael Gandolfini playing in Daredevil: Born Again? Is it Kingpin’s son? Here are all your questions answered.
Is Michael Gandolfini playing Kingpin’s son in Daredevil: Born Again?
Michael Gandolfini is not playing Kingpin’s son in Daredevil: Born Again. He is reportedly playing a character named Daniel Blade.
Gandolfini’s role as Daniel Blade was seemingly confirmed in a U.S. copyright listing for the series. Daniel Blade’s character seems to be created especially for the series, as it does not exist in Marvel Comics or related media.
However, this did not stop fans from theorizing that The Many Saints of Newark actor could be playing a young Fisk or his son Richard. In the comics, Fisk’s son Richard is a criminal who has gone by aliases like The Schemer and The Rose. “Richard Fisk or teenage Wilson Fisk,” one fan posted.
One fan claimed on Reddit that Gandolfini could be playing Muse. Muse is a notable Daredevil adversary who has been confirmed for the series.
Not much is known about Michael Gandolfini’s character, thanks to the actor who has been silent about it. When asked about it in an interview with Collider, he just stated that his character was a Staten Island native and did not divulge any other details.
Daredevil: Born Again will premiere on March 4, 2025. Dario Scardapane, Chris Ord, and Matt Corman developed the series.
Charlie Cox headlines the series, reprising his role of Matt Murdock / Daredevil from the Netflix series and previous MCU projects like She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. Also reprising their roles are Vincent D’Onofrio, Deborah Ann Woll, Elden Henson, Ayelet Zurer, and Jon Bernthal. New cast members comprise Gandolfini, Margarita Levieva, Nikki M. James, and Genneya Walton.
