Fans of Daredevil: Born Again have the chance to catch a glimpse of the cast filming on location in New York City, much like the original Netflix series. This not only makes it easier for enthusiasts to get a firsthand experience but also keeps the essence of the show rooted in its iconic setting.
During my own visit to a filming site, I experienced a brief moment of uncertainty about being in such close proximity to the action. It’s a common occurrence, with shoots happening in various neighborhoods throughout the city. The accessibility of the production means that spotting Charlie Cox in his role as Matt Murdock isn’t as difficult as one might imagine.
Passionate Fans Engage with the Cast
The excitement of the fans was palpable as they gathered at the shooting location last week. Between takes, Charlie Cox took the time to interact with those eagerly awaiting a chance to see their favorite characters come to life. One fan humorously mentioned how they had been waiting since early morning for a glimpse of the filming, and Cox playfully responded with:
“ITS TUESDAY WHY AREN’T YOU WATCHING DAREDEVIL?!?!”? #DaredevilBornAgain pic.twitter.com/PiH61O3W1H

Cox’s comment elicited laughter from the crowd, underscoring his witty nature. The series is currently available on Disney+, and it’s not surprising that Cox, as the charismatic Matt Murdock, displayed a bit of sass. Attendees were clearly thrilled, even as they confessed to avoiding social media to steer clear of spoilers—especially since the beloved Jon Bernthal reprised his role as Frank Castle.
A City Full of Memories
The cancellation of the original Daredevil series left a void for many fans, particularly for those of us who call New York City home. The Netflix portrayal captured the essence of the city, showcasing the vibrancy of the neighborhoods that often served as the backdrop for heroics. While I might joke about the show’s depiction of “Hell’s Kitchen, ” there’s no denying the allure of seeing my city in all its gritty realism through Matt Murdock’s eyes.
When Daredevil: Born Again was announced, I held my breath, fearing it might follow in the footsteps of other superhero films by shifting much of the filming to locations outside of New York. Thankfully, Marvel recognized the importance of keeping the production within the character’s home city, ensuring authenticity.
The dedication exhibited by fans who flock to filming locations is heartwarming and highlights the connection many have with Daredevil. Cox’s lighthearted teasing of those who chose to watch him film instead of tuning into the show only adds to the camaraderie shared between the cast and their supporters. I can only hope that those present didn’t accidentally spoil some surprises for themselves while enjoying the live filming experience.
It’s a unique thrill to have a cherished character like Matt Murdock crossing paths with fans in such an unpredictable and intimate manner. Who wouldn’t appreciate a little friendly banter from their favorite superhero? Such interactions make being part of the Daredevil community all the more special, fostering a sense of nostalgia and excitement as we welcome this beloved character back into our lives.
