Charlie Cox on the Return of The Defenders — 'There Needed to Be Some Kind of Closure' | NYCC 2026

Charlie Cox hit New York Comic Con today to join in the Marvel Television panel — jetlagged and just in from Dublin, but ready to talk the return of Daredevil for Season 3 of Born Again. And not just the return of the Horned One, but also his old teammates The Defenders.

"I think there needed to be a full circle with that story," Cox told IGN's Jeffrey Vega today after the panel. "There needed to be some kind of closure with it."

The Defenders of course originated in the Netflix Marvel era, where each character — Daredevil, Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), Luke Cage (Mike Colter), and Iron Fist (Finn Jones) — had their own series before teaming up for the 2017 Defenders season. Eventually those shows all came to an end, but when Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio showed up in the proper MCU, it seemed like only a matter of time before the street-level heroes would be reunited.

"And Marvel were willing and able to bring them back and have a lot of fun with it," the actor said of the quartet returning. "It was great. We're such good friends. We have a great time together. There's some really interesting, fun dynamics that the fans seem to love, so it was great."

Part of that fun, Cox joked, was Mike Colter "giving away spoilers non-stop" — referring of course to the actor putting some info on social earlier this year that he shouldn't have.
