The prevailing theory for Spider-Man: Brand New Day is that Matt Murdock will somehow factor into the web-swinging adventure.
But the latest talk of Daredevil: Born Again season 3 from Marvel TV boss Brad Winderbaum may have put paid to your theories.
"There will be a small time jump, but it's not too significant. It's not like we're jumping ahead five years or anything," Winderbaum told ScreenRant of the gap between season 2 and 3's stories. "We're probably jumping ahead a year or so, kind of like the real-life distance between seasons."

The Daredevil: Born Again season 2 ending saw Matt Murdock arrested after admitting to being Daredevil in a bid to entrap Wilson Fisk during Karen Page's trial. Fisk, at the risk of his own legal danger, chose exile and finds himself both out of the mayor's office and out of New York City entirely by the time the season draws to a close.
But it's Spider-Man: Brand New Day that's the focus here. After all, a suspiciously edited moment from the first trailer – as well as Spidey fighting The Hand in a prison block – suggested to fans that the webhead could be breaking Daredevil out of prison.
When coupled with the arrival of another street-level character in Jon Bernthal's The Punisher, many believe that Spider-Man and The Man Without Fear would team up in some capacity on the big screen.
But seeming confirmation of a one-year time jump in Born Again season 3 might stop any dream crossover hopes between Marvel's leading New York crimefighters in its tracks – unless Matt willingly returns to prison after the events of Brand New Day, that is.
Even if the wallcrawler doesn't cross paths with the brick-catching lawyer, it appears the third season will be a Defenders reunion of sorts, as Luke Cage actor Mike Colter and Iron Fist actor Finn Jones were spotted on set.
