Daredevil season 3 will premiere on Netflix later this year and it sounds like one of his biggest adversaries has finally been cast.

We’re looking forward to the newest season of Daredevil coming to Netflix later this year and the “Born Again” storylines expected to be a part of the 13 new episodes.

We already know Joanne Whalley has been cast in the role of Sister Maggie, Matt’s mother, which was teased in the closing scenes of The Defenders mini-series. But now, it looks like another big casting announcement has been made and the true role he’ll be playing has fans super excited.

According to The Hashtag Show, Wilson Bethel has been cast to play Bullseye, the hired assassin of Wilson Fisk, who makes things really, really rough on Matt Murdock. Bethel was cast in November to play an FBI agent, but that could just be the cover for his true identity.

Fans of the Daredevil comics have long wanted to see Bullseye make an appearance in the Netflix series. There were rumors Jason Statham was in the running to play the character for season 2 before nothing materialized from that.

The Bullseye character appeared in the Daredevil movie with Ben Affleck and played by Collin Ferrell, but fans are largely trying to scrub that movie from their memory.

If you’re a comic reader, you know all too well about the trouble Bullseye brings to Matt’s life. I won’t spoil anything from the comics, but it’s also possible that the storylines in the comic will be adapted for the Netflix series.

But we do know, Bullseye is the hired assassin of Kingpin who learns the identity of Daredevil and begins to destroy him as only he can.

It’s going to make for some awesome drama and conflict that will be a welcome addition to the series that is expected to launch in the fall of 2018.

Marvel and Netflix haven’t confirmed the casting of Bethel is playing Bullseye, but as soon as they comment, we’ll be sure to update this post accordingly. In the meantime, it sounds like the villain fans have long wanted to see has finally been cast.
