Netflix’sDaredevilIs Now Considered Canon In The MC
DespiteCharlie Coxstating that the upcoming MCU show,Daredevil: Born Again, won’t continue the Netflix series, the concept of the multiverse in comic book films has blurred lines now. Initially deemed a separate entity, recent developments suggest that Marvel may no longer view the Netflix series as entirely unrelated to the MCU.
While speaking toScreen Rant, Marvel Cinematic Universe executive producer Brad Winderbaum made it clear that he considers the original Netflix series to be MCU canon now. He mentioned that there was previously a cautious approach regarding what is considered part of the “Sacred Timeline,” indicating canon content.
“I can say that up until this point, we’ve been a little bit cagey about what’s Sacred Timeline, what’s not Sacred Timeline.That was born of, frankly, a period at the studio where we were like, ‘We have to stick the landing with the vendors.’ It was another part of the company developing the Netflix stuff. We were aware of what they were doing, they were aware of what we were doing, but there was a lot to balance anyway.”
This caution stemmed from a period when Marvel Studios was focused on concluding the Avengers storyline. However, as time has passed and the integration of stories has become more apparent, Winderbaum now expresses confidence in saying that the Netflix series. Winderbaum said,
“But now that some time has passed; now that we see actually how well integrated the stories are, I think that I personally, Brad Winderbaum, would be confident in saying it is part of the Sacred Timeline.”
Many fans are obviously happy about the fact that Daredevil is now officially canon in the Marvel Cinematic Universe – something that they had been clamouring for many years. Now it remains to be seen how Cox’s return as the iconic character will fare.

Nonetheless, we might get to see the character return and do better this time around.
