The Daredevil series is the textbook definition of fan-favorite and social media was all praise for the Marvel gem on its ninth anniversary.

Marvel’s Daredevil remains one of the most iconic and popular television shows based on Marvel Comics, thanks to the critically acclaimed three-season run on Netflix. Created by Drew Goddard, the series first premiered in April 2015, with mostly positive reviews and immense fanfare due to its dark and gritty nature.

In November 2018, Daredevil was canceled by Netflix, and the characters were later incorporated into the MCU. Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio have already reprised their roles as Matt Murdock / Daredevil and Wilson Fisk / Kingpin in other MCU properties. The duo is also set to headline the upcoming reboot series Daredevil: Born Again, with most of the original cast members expected to return.

Fans Demand Marvel Leave the Daredevil Title Sequence Unchanged For the MCU Reboot

As fans celebrated the ninth anniversary of the original Daredevil series, they also looked forward to watching their beloved characters return in a new form for the MCU reboot. Some fans shared their expectations for Daredevil: Born Again online and here is what they had to say on X.

Marvel I hope you’ve learned your lesson so just keep going with what you’ve learned, and don’t try to replace this intro with a new oneKeep it as it is, obviously if they can

I think it’s safe to say that this is one of the best opening sequences in all of tv. This show does nothing but age like fine wine. Damn near perfection in my humble opinion.

As the tweets suggest, fans want the title sequence and the original theme from Daredevil to be used again in the MCU reboot. The title sequence features the titular character’s motifs being slowly uncovered through red paint, with composer John Paesano’s iconic main theme for the series playing over it.

The title sequence continues to induce goosebumps even today and remains unskippable during rewatches of the series. Therefore, it is understandable that fans do not want Marvel to replace the title sequence or mess with it by trying to alter it in any shape or form.

The title sequence was retained when Daredevil moved from Netflix to Disney, making it possible that it could be reused in Daredevil: Born Again. The reboot series was recently confirmed to have wrapped up filming on its first season, following a major creative overhaul. Daredevil: Born Again is expected to premiere on Disney+ in 2025, while the original series is also streaming on the platform.
