Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 just made its debut on Disney+, but one of its biggest stars seems to have accidentally revealed a major spoiler.
The Marvel television show, whose second season launched on March 24 and 25, returned with a one-episode premiere that largely lays the groundwork for more explosive events and shocking moments to come.
Unfortunately, it appears that one of said shocking moments has been revealed ahead of schedule. Potentially huge spoilers immediately follow. for Daredevil: Born Again season 2. If you don’t want to know what the incident is, I suggest you read my Daredevil: Born Again Instead, check out season 2, which gives you a taste of the entire season without spoiling any major plot points.

Does Vanessa Fisk die in Daredevil: Born Again season 2?
The apparent story spoiler comes courtesy of Vincent D’Onofrio, who plays Wilson Fisk/Kingpin in the Disney+ TV original and is one of the first two names on the show’s call sheet.
Considering D’Onofrio has played Fisk since 2016, you think he’d be well versed in not giving away any major spoilers. In fact, he played the same character in all three Netflix seasons. Reckless television series and has appeared in other Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) projects in hawk eye and Echo. Clearly, then, this is not his first rodeo.
However, D’Onofrio seems to have screwed up and openly discussed that an important character will die in Daredevil: Born AgainThe second season. Talking about the Daredevil: Official Born Again Podcast (watch below), a companion piece that offers a behind-the-scenes look at the series’ development, D’Onofrio and fellow star Charlie Cox were chatting about the premiere’s opening scene when D’Onofrio made the mistake.
Look
“They [Daredevil and his allies] “They’re just trying to make very small, incremental blows to the Fisk regime and hope that something gives and allows a change in momentum,” Cox said. “And the season begins with their first big victory, which is the [sinking of weapons-carrying freighter] North Star.”
And here’s D’Onofrio’s part of the exchange, which begins at 7:45 and, strangely, has been edited into this section of the conversation without context: “So Fisk’s worry is that the public thinks (might think) that his death is worrying him.”
Go, go, go. Hold on, whose death? There’s only one character D’Onofrio has to refer to here: Ayelus Zurer’s Vanessa Fisk, aka Wilson’s wife and accomplice. She is not only the love of his life, but also the only person Wilson Fisk trusts. The only other female characters operating in Fisk’s circle are Chief of Staff Sheila Rivera and Mental Health Commissioner Heather Glenn, and neither individual’s disappearance would elicit the same reaction from Fisk that D’Onofrio alluded to in those comments.
Frankly, I can’t believe no one at Marvel Studios noticed the mishap. If they had, they wouldn’t have released this episode of the official Marvel Phase 6 project podcast with D’Onofrio’s comments included.
In fact, the only other person (besides me, of course) who seems to have noticed is Reddit user Xenoslayer2137 (see Reddit post above). If more listeners/viewers also notice and point out the error in due time, and/or this story gains traction, I’ll be interested to see if Marvel and Disney end up removing this episode from the podcast, removing D’Onofrio’s comments, and re-uploading it.
In the meantime, I’ve reached out to Marvel and Disney for comment on what D’Onofrio said and will update this article if I hear back.
