Daredevil: 10 Characters Who Must Appear In Season 2

4. Typhoid Mary

A running joke with Matt Murdock is his disastrous love life. 

Possessing low-level psionic powers, Mary Walker was actually transformed into Typhoid Mary by Matt. Before he became Daredevil, Matt tracked down a criminal to a brothel where Mary worked. The women there attacked Matt and in a panic, he accidentally knocked Mary out a window. Mary then vowed no man would ever hurt her again.

She has multiple personalities: Mary is timid and peaceful, Typhoid is lustful and violent, and Bloody Mary is brutal and sadistic. When she first met Daredevil, she worked as an assassin for the Kingpin while beginning a romance with Matt.

Having a love/hate relationship with Daredevil for years, she’s a master assassin and her personality conflicts could make for some interesting stories. It would also be a great achievement to whatever actress is able to pull it off.

Her powers allow her to levitate objects or to cause objects to spontaneously combust, in addition to possessing hypnotic abilities.

During her time when she was beginning a romance with Matt, she reverted to her Typhoid personality and began a relationship with the Kingpin. If Fisk appears again in the second season, that could create an even more personal conflict for Matt and Fisk, while also causing Fisk problems with Vanessa.
