Basically Disney is keeping a lot of the same creatives behind the original Daredevil, but intend to use season 1 pay rates because they tacked, âBorn Againâ on to the title.
Pretty gross penny pinching from one of the wealthiest media corporations in the world.
Yeah, look at any of the Disney channel series, they all change the name slightly to reset the season and avoid union required pay increases. One example: The Suite Life⊠which was split into 2-3 season series.
Hollywood accounting strikes again!
It is a complete reboot though isnât it? The original show on Netflix isnât part of the canon of this one? If so then I donât really get their complaint.
Even if they wipe the continuity, which is still very unclear, is it really fair to call it a âcomplete rebootâ when theyâre using the same cast for the most prominent roles?
A tonne of the same cast are returning. Bernthal is still the Punisher, DâOnofrio is still Kingpin⊠no, this is a calculated decision to pay the workers less.
Same actors != not a reboot. Iirc theyâre going to have gal gadot as Wonder Woman again but are rebooting her character so the 2 previous movies are not canon, didnât happen.
If theyâre making a new series that has literally nothing to do with the previous one, zero connection to anything that happened in it, how is it not a reboot? Should they use different actors just to justify it being a reboot?
I am fully in agreement with you, although I can see why you and others didnât take that from my initial comment. The calculated decision I referred to was Disneyâs cynical claim that this is a reboot. Theyâre shafting workers, we can all see it.

From everything Iâve read, all people associated with it are calling it a reboot and not a continuation of the previous show.
