The second season of Daredevil: Born Again has not only deepened Matt Murdock's story but also introduced a wealth of characters who could easily headline their own shows. With Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle already getting a special presentation in The Punisher: One Last Kill, it's time to consider which other heroes and anti-heroes deserve the spotlight. Here are six characters (well, technically seven) from the series who we'd love to see in their own MCU projects.
Jessica Jones & Luke Cage
Mike Colter's surprise return as Luke Cage in the Born Again finale, alongside Krysten Ritter's Jessica Jones, was a fan-service dream come true. Seeing Jessica reopen Alias Investigations and the couple raising their daughter Danielle in New York City is a pitch-perfect setup for a new series. A Heroes for Hire show featuring Danny Rand/Iron Fist would be the ultimate payoff, but even a solo Jessica Jones series exploring her new life and Luke's potential mayoral run would be compelling. With Kingpin defeated and Daredevil behind bars, Hell's Kitchen needs protectors—and this power couple fits the bill.
White Tiger
Angela del Toro (Camila Rodriguez) has been struggling to honor her uncle Hector's legacy after his death in Season 1. Season 2 reintroduces the White Tiger totem, hinting at Angela's eventual transformation into the next White Tiger. While a full series might be a long shot, a special presentation similar to The Punisher: One Last Kill could work wonders. Imagine a story that alternates between Hector's crime-fighting past and Angela's present-day journey—a fresh take on legacy and heroism that would resonate with fans.
Bullseye
Benjamin "Dex" Poindexter, aka Bullseye (Wilson Bethel), has been a standout since the Netflix days. His redemption arc in Born Again Season 2 surprised many, but the season finale leaves his story wide open. A spin-off following Bullseye as he works for the U.S. government overseas—perhaps alongside Matthew Lillard's Mr. Charles—could explore his struggle with morality and his growing empathy. It's a rich narrative vein that could redefine the character. For more on Bullseye's future, check out Bullseye's MCU Future: Wilson Bethel Teases Spider-Man, Punisher Showdowns.
BB Urich
Ben Urich's death left a void in Matt Murdock's world, but his niece BB Urich (Genneya Walton) has stepped up to expose Wilson Fisk's corruption. While a full BB Report series might not be in the cards, a web-series format could be a clever way to keep viewers engaged between seasons. A news-style show covering vigilante activity in post-Kingpin New York could feature cameos from Spider-Man and other NYC-based heroes, building hype for future projects. It's a low-cost, high-impact idea that Marvel should consider.
Swordsman
Jack Duquesne, aka Swordsman (Tony Dalton), first appeared in Hawkeye and has been a recurring thorn in Kingpin's side in Born Again. With Fisk banished from the U.S., Swordsman has skipped town, but a solo miniseries could put him on a collision course with his former captor. His swashbuckling style and moral ambiguity make him perfect for a globe-trotting adventure. For more underrated gems, check out Forgotten Sci-Fi Gems That Deserve a Second Look.
These characters have proven they can carry their own stories, and with the MCU's expanding slate, now is the perfect time to give them the spotlight they deserve.
