Born Again Opening Credits Details Revealed by Rumor

A new Daredevil: Born Again rumor offers fans insight into what they can expect from the Disney Plus show’s opening credits and how it honors the original Netflix series.

Daredevil: Born Again started production as more of a reboot than a continuation of the Netflix series. Even Daredevil actor Charlie Cox said that Born Again wasn’t Daredevil season 4 and described the Marvel Studios show as a “whole new thing.” However, the 2023 writers’ and actors’ strikes allowed Marvel Studios to review footage and determine that this new approach wasn’t working. Daredevil: Born Again then underwent a creative overhaul with Dario Scardapane brought on board as showrunner to write new episodes and scenes to fit pre-existing footage. The series is now more of a continuation than a complete reset, with the Daredevil: Born Again opening credits perhaps best demonstrating this balance between honoring the past and moving forward in a new direction.

Rumor: Nova Marvel Show Eyeing An Actor From Zack Snyder’s Justice League

The Nova Show is rumored to be eyeing an actor who played one of the heroes in Zack Snyder’s Justice League, but who could they play in the MCU?

Reputable scooper Daniel Richtman reports that the Daredevil: Born Again opening credits will have a new animated intro that depicts a Daredevil statue breaking down and then being built back up. However, Daredevil: Born Again will still use composer John Paesano’s theme from the Netflix series. The decision to reuse the Daredevil Netflix theme may not surprise most fans, as it was used briefly for Daredevil’s appearances in She-Hulk and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. Daredevil: Born Again score composers the Newton Brothers even shared an Instagram video featuring a remixed version of Paesano’s theme, hinting at their intentions to use the much-loved tune. Still, the details on Daredevil: Born Again‘s new animated intro is fresh information.

Fans are likely thrilled to hear Daredevil: Born Again will use Paesano’s theme. Many were disappointed when they learned Paesano was not returning to score Daredevil: Born Again. However, Pasesano responded to the Newton Brothers’ hiring by offering his wholehearted endorsement, calling it a “big win” for fans and the Daredevil character. The Newton Brothers proved their ability to faithfully render a new version of a beloved theme with their X-Men ’97 score, so Daredevil: Born Again‘s music is in more than capable hands.

Daredevil: Born Again showrunner Scardapane’s criticism of the Netflix show’s dialogue scenes worried some fans. The creative team behind the Disney Plus series continues to assure fans that Daredevil: Born Again won’t shy away from the violent mature content of the Netflix show. However, Scaradpane’s comments about the original series having long scenes with characters discussing “what a hero is” have some fans concerned that the writer doesn’t understand what made Netflix successful. The brutal action scenes were a highlight of the Netflix show, but the conversations between the characters arguably made fans fall in love with the characters more than anything. So, using Pasesano’s Daredevil theme indicates that the Born Again showrunners haven’t abandoned the past as they move the character forward.

Daredevil: Born Again premieres on March 4, 2025, on Disney Plus.
