Marvel's Daredevil Season 3: 9 Villains That Should Appear
6. Nuke
Netflix/Marvel
We already got to see Nuke in Jessica Jones, so he's one of the more likely characters to crop in Daredevil's third season, unless, of course, there are plans to use him in Jones' upcoming season.
Still, the likely option is that the character pops up in Daredevil, seeing as how the super-soldier did kind of have a pivotal role to play in the comic of the same name. There, Fisk uses his military connections to deploy Nuke in Hell's Kitchen to draw out Murdock, who'd gone into hiding until that point. The plan worked of course, except for the fact that Matt proceeded to thoroughly beat the bargain basement Captain America. The Avengers would later intervene, however, with Steve Rogers in particular perturbed by Nuke's star-spangled motif.
While we'll most definitely not be getting an Avengers cameo anytime soon, the general feeling is that Nuke will have a part to play in Daredevil, either in an ancillary role or otherwise.
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.
