Daredevil: Born Again season 2 showrunner Dario Scardapane says he regrets not giving more time to Muse’s season 1 storyline.
Warning: spoilers for Daredevil: Born Again season 2 episode 9 below!
“This was a weird one because it had to do with a plot line that we inherited, that I felt we didn’t do justice to: the original Muse storyline in season 1,” Scardapane told Entertainment Weekly. “Because of what was filmed and what wasn’t filmed and what we could use and not use, it didn’t have the heft that I thought Muse deserved. But, again, we were limited by what we could shoot and what we had time and money for.”

Though Muse wasn’t as fleshed out as the team would’ve liked in season 1, season 2 does a pretty good job of exploring trauma and PTSD following Heather Glenn’s near-fatal encounter with Muse, which caused her to experience violence she’d never experienced before, and forced her to defend herself in a way she didn’t know she was capable of… and it also sets up a new iteration of Muse for season 3.
“What happens if she literally puts on that trauma, and that trauma solves a lot of her conflict? We talked to Margarita about that,” Scardapane continued. “It seems supernatural if you watch the way it’s progressing, and now we have a Muse that isn’t just dropped in. Now you have the [character] development of, why would she become this thing? Why would she go to such a dark place? And I think you understand it. I don’t think anybody’s prepared exactly for where this is going, and that’s still fun.”
Interestingly enough… there is no “Lady Muse” in the comics. She’s just Muse, and she’s an artist named Morgan Whittier. Basically, Muse possesses her body after his soul goes to hell. We don’t know if it’s Muse’s soul that will possess Glenn, or that Glenn will become Muse as a result of the trauma… But she also meets a pretty tragic end in Daredevil #220 (which hit shelves in 1985), so I’m all for a revamp of her character.
Daredevil: Born Again season 3 is expected sometime in 2027. For more, stay up to date on all the upcoming Marvel movies and shows that are currently in the works.
