The release of the Daredevil: Born Again trailer has sent ripples through the MCU fandom, and not just because of the return of Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock. The two-minute trailer made waves for its unflinching depiction of violence, with bone-crunching action sequences, zoomed-in shots of blood pooling in clothing, and an overarching tone of physical and emotional pain. This seems to mean that Daredevil: Born Again marks a sharp departure from the MCU’s traditionally sanitized portrayal of violence, which has often favored minimal gore even during catastrophic battles.
