Marvel is making March Daredevil month, with Brad Winderbaum revealing plans for the Charlie Cox-led Daredevil: Born Again to roll out new installments every March.

Marvel just quietly set a clock on Daredevil: Born Again, and if you like your superhero TV showing up on time, this is good news.

What Marvel just said

Brad Winderbaum, who runs streaming, television, and animation for Marvel Studios, told Agents of Fandom that Daredevil: Born Again is shifting into a predictable groove. The plan: new seasons on an annual March cadence, as long as people keep watching.

"Daredevil: Born Again is an annual release every March, you know, for as long as people enjoy the show... Same thing with X-Men '97 and Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. We’ve got this annual cadence starting next year, which I think is really important."

Worth noting: one early write-up framed it as "every other year," but everything Winderbaum actually says points to an every-March schedule. Classic 'the quote says one thing, the summary says another' situation.

How the dates line up

Daredevil: Born Again began its TV run in March 2025, bringing Charlie Cox back to Hell's Kitchen after a seven-year break from headlining as the Man Without Fear. Marvel has already confirmed more on the way, including a third season renewal. Here is how the current rollout shakes out based on what Winderbaum laid out:

  • Season 1: March 2025 (already out)
  • Season 2: Targeting March 2026 (not officially dated yet)
  • Season 3: Renewed, likely March 2027
  • Season 4: Not greenlit, but if it happens, March 2028 fits the pattern

The bigger strategy

Inside baseball alert: Marvel says it has "embraced a traditional development cycle" again. Translation: fewer one-and-done experiments, more shows designed to sustain across multiple seasons with a steady release rhythm. Winderbaum also said X-Men '97 and Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man are aiming for the same annual March drop, which suggests Marvel wants a reliable spring pipeline for its series.

The context

Winderbaum made the comments while doing press for Marvel Zombies, which is its own thing but part of the broader TV slate he oversees. As always, this is all contingent on audience interest: if the viewership holds, the March train keeps rolling.

The timetable and quotes surfaced via an interview with Agents of Fandom and were initially picked up by Apoorv Rastogi at SuperHeroHype before making the rounds.
