Daredevil: Born Again Season 3 moves forward with relentless momentum as Marvel Studios begins casting. This is followed by a successful run of the series and praise for its cast members. Audiences have long been in awe of Charlie Cox’s haunted heroism and Vincent D’Onofrio’s formidable Kingpin. Now, the additional cast members promise to intensify Hell’s Kitchen’s shadows and moral peril.

Marvel Studios has officially begun early casting for Daredevil: Born Again Season 3, with production reportedly set to begin in March 2026. Industry insider Daniel RPK revealed on his Patreon that auditions are underway for key roles. Fans are already speculating about new faces joining Hell’s Kitchen’s dark streets.

The mysterious role is given the name Philip, keeping the character's real name a secret. Philip is described as clever and streetwise with a hidden, simmering rage. Observers suggest he may be Byron Pharris, Wilson Fisk’s illegitimate son, signaling fresh intrigue and renewed tension in the Kingpin saga.

Although Jon Bernthal will not reprise Frank Castle, Charlie Cox, Vincent D’Onofrio, and Wilson Bethel return to navigate Hell’s Kitchen’s darkness. And now, according to Daniel RPK, new cast memeber or members will also be serenading the audience.

Inevitably, fans cannot help but envision their own picks for the mysterious newcomers.

Who fits the bill as Philip in Daredevil: Born Again season 3?

Rudy Pankow leads fan speculation for Philip, his Outer Banks performance showcasing scrappy resilience beneath emotional complexity. His gritty New York charm would suit a character rumored to carry both wit and simmering rage.

At the same time, Wolfgang Novogratz attracts attention for his imposing physicality and streetwise energy. His familiarity with Marvel-style casting makes him a natural fit for Philip, ensuring the character’s cleverness and toughness resonate with Hell’s Kitchen’s dark streets.

In the same way, Mason Gooding earns consideration for his charismatic intensity in the Scream franchise, embodying the duality of lovable charm and rageful depth. Supporters believe he could bring Philip to life while balancing narrative weight with audience appeal.

As Marvel Studios progresses with Season 3 casting, these possibilities highlight a character designed to enrich the series’ street-level storytelling, intensifying the dynamics between the alleged Philip and Matt Murdock.
