Elden Henson set to reprise role of Foggy Nelson in Marvel Studios’ upcoming Disney Plus series Daredevil: Born Again.
Henson once played Foggy on Netflix daredevil series, as well as in The defenders and cameo roles in Jessica Jones and Luke Cage. Considering Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio are set to return as Matt Murdock and Kingpin respectively, it’s no surprise to learn that Henson is also set to return as Matt’s close friend and partner.
Together, Matt Murdock and Foggy Nelson created the law firm their characters worked at throughout the Netflix series. It looks like the Nelson and Murdock company is about to reopen.
While fans were unsure of Netflix’s canonicity daredevil in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the returning cast for born again seems to confirm that the previous series was set in the same continuity as the rest of the MCU – even if the new series is something of a fresh start.
Charlie Cox’s Matt Murdock has already been seen practicing law in the MCU, appearing in Spider-Man: No Coming Home as Peter Parker’s attorney. It was unlikely born again would see him return without Elden Henson’s Foggy Nelson by his side. A new report apparently confirms that this is the case.
According to reliable scooper Daniel Richtman, Foggy will be back for Daredevil: Born Again with Elden Henson reprising the role. It’s not yet known if Deborah Ann Woll’s Karen Page is also returning, though it looks like Marvel Studios is hoping to reunite all of the alumni. daredevil cast.
