Daredevil Season 3: 9 Reasons To Be Excited

3. Daredevil's Secret Identity In Peril

As touched upon briefly previously, one of the most tantalising parts of Born Again is that it put Matt Murdock's secret identity in peril, with Kingpin finding out who his greatest enemy really is. It hasn't been confirmed that this will actually happen in the upcoming season, but it seems locked in, as more people are privy to Daredevil's true identity than ever.

It's also been suggested that this storyline could be linked to Brian Michael Bendis' The Murdock Papers, a comic where Kingpin weaponized his knowledge of this information to smear both Daredevil and Murdock in the press. Thematically, this would tie in brilliantly with the end of season 1, where Fisk similarly had his name dragged through the mud on account of his secret identity.

Either way, Matt's struggle to balance his civilian activities with his crime-fighting duties will once again be a major part of the third season, which is material not often covered in a world where superheroes like Tony Stark are completely open about their private lives.
