Daredevil Season 3: 10 Ways To Make The Perfect Born Again Adaptation
4. Mend Matt And Foggy's Friendship
Netflix
Nelson and Murdock, Avocados at Law (no more).
One of the saddest things about the last season of Daredevil was seeing Matt and Foggy part ways. After having embarked on their legal journey together as a dynamic duo from their university days, the severing of the Nelson/Murdock tie was a significant one indeed. With Foggy now due to start work with Jeri Hogarth, there's little chance that we'll be seeing the pair teaming up to cross-examine witnesses or offer closing statements to members of a jury anytime soon.
The friendship's in a pretty awful place, all things considered. And, while it's more than true that Matt can do his own thing quite easily on the page and off it, the Nelson/Murdock partnership is famous for a reason; the two have a massive friendship in the source material, and Foggy himself has a key part to play in the Born Again storyline. It need not be mended immediately, but it would be nice to see the beginnings of a renewed partnership in the season's earlier episodes.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
