Daredevil Season 2 New Trailer Breakdown: 25 Things You Need To See

6. The Rising

"You cannot stop what we have started. The rising is coming." Some more ominous words in a trailer stuffed with 'em. This starts as we see who appears to be Nobu, and continues on with Elektra and Daredevil looking over this huge hole that's been created. There are a few things that could be taken from 'the rising'. One is that it could be pointing towards resurrection and, more broadly, the Hand. And then it might also give an indication as to their plans, which could involve some sort of uprising and chaos in Hell's Kitchen, designed to give them control. The third, and majorly comic booky and awesome possibility, is that the hole and the rising refers to the Beast - the primordial demon who the Hand worship, and who gives them their abilities. It's far more mystical than anything we saw in Season 1, but with Jessica Jones bringing superpowers into play, they are now in a position to take things further into that area.
