Daredevil Season 3: 10 Ways To Make The Perfect Born Again Adaptation

7. Include Nuke (To A Degree)

In the actual Born Again comic, Nuke featured primarily as a physical opponent for Daredevil to fight, as well as to emphasise Fisk's power in being able to utilise the armed forces in his war against Murdock.

A failed recreation of Project Rebirth, Nuke made his live action debut in the first season of Jessica Jones before he was recaptured by his old military unit. Marvel clearly has plans for the character in the future, and, if it's not to do with Jessica Jones, then it'll surely be something to do with Daredevil.

Like Bullseye, Nuke provides a clear physical challenge to Matt Murdock, and while it would be wise to suspect that the whole flag-face gimmick probably won't be making its way into live action territory, one would suspect Will Simpson will be sporting a clear military aesthetic in his next appearance. If that appearance is in Daredevil, then things will be looking very explosive indeed.
