'Daredevil' season 3 update: Release date, cast, what we know so far

“Daredevil” fans now have a reason to rejoice as season 3 has been confirmed. The release date is still pretty far off, but it is going to happen anyway. The season will air on Netflix, although it probably won’t be released until 2018. This means it’s actually a long wait for patrons of the show.

Release Date

Deborah Ann Wall, who plays the character of Karen Page in the TV series, confirmed that the production house plans to release “Daredevil” season 3. She did say, though, that it is going to take some time as “Defenders” is scheduled to be released first.

"Well, our specific next season is so far in the future," Wall said. "They have to get ‘Defenders’ out first. I speak with Doug and Marco every once in a while and they’re hard at work," she added, according to a report by Seat 42f.

Cast

The same people who were a part of the previous two seasons will be cast for "Daredevil" season 3. Krysten Ritter as Jessica Jones and Mike Colter as Luke Cage could make an appearance too. Vincent D'Onofrio's Wilson "Kingpin" Fisk will almost certainly be a part of this season as a villain. The news has not yet been confirmed, however.

D’Onofrio also talked about his role and Marvel, saying, “ I know he will come back, I just don’t know when." He further said he is a big fan of Marvel and his love for the brand comes from the creativity of the people over there. "They let you bring this whole new thing to an iconic thing that they invented. It’s just so much fun," D’Onofrio added, according to a Collider report.

What’s more important is whether or not Bullseye will be a part of the season. Fans definitely want to see the villain in action for sure.

Charlie Cox also talked about Bullseye and said he expects the villain to make an appearance at some point in the series. In an interview with Screen Rant, he said, "I can’t imagine doing a run of "Daredevil" where Bullseye doesn’t show up at some point.”

Bullseye’s appearance has not been mentioned by any credible sources. Fans have to wait for a long time to see what "Daredevil" season 3 has in store for them. The previous seasons are available for online streaming on Netflix.
