The first reactions are in for Daredevil: Born Again season 2 – and the Man Without Fear's second MCU outing is getting an overwhelmingly positive reception.

Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk actors Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio are getting particular praise for their performances, and the general consensus seems to be that the second installment of the show is an improvement on the first.

"Daredevil: BornAgain season 2 is 5/5 stars for me," wrote GamesRadar+'s Lauren Milici. "YES it is so so so cool to have Krysten Ritter back as Jessica Jones (!) but Bullseye cements himself as one of the best comic book villains EVER period and don't even get me started on Lillard's effortlessly creepy Mr. Charles."

  • Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk in Daredevil: Born Again Kingpin actor says Daredevil: Born Again season 2 is "looking real good" as he shares a dark new image of the villain

"I really liked the first season of Daredevil: Born Again, but I absolutely loved the second," said The Film Reelists' Kyle Noronha. "Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio continue to be incredible. The second season of Born Again delivers in every way and is the season of television Daredevil fans have been waiting for."

"Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 is exactly the upgrade that we needed!" Nexus Point News tweeted. "This is Daredevil in its finest form yet in the MCU. The narrative is darker, actual stakes are in effect, the cinematography and lighting are absolutely stunning, and fights feel like they’re taken straight out of the comics with surprises that not even you will expect."

Meanwhile, GeekCentric's Justin Lawrence wrote, "Daredevil: Born Again S2 is BLOODY, BRUTAL, and UNFORGIVING. It’s sharper, darker, and when things get real, it hits HARD. Bone-crunching action meets heavy, timely themes, with stakes that feel dangerously real. Charlie Cox & Vincent D’Onofrio are operating at their absolute BEST!"

Daredevil: Born Again season 2 premieres on Disney Plus on March 24. For more on Marvel Phase 6, check out our guide to all the other upcoming Marvel movies and shows.
