Following what was described in the trades as a creative overhaul on the project, Daredevil: Born Again recently restarted production in New York City. With the additions of Wilson Bethel, Elden Henson and Deborah Ann Woll to the cast, many had begun to question just how much of the original story–and cast–for the new series made the cut after Dario Scardapane took over as showrunner. As the days have gone by, it’s starting to seem as though the initial wave of changes aren’t overwhelming and now another actress whose role in the series had been in question has been seen on set.
Following a daytime shoot where Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio shared a table at the Square Diner, Cox was captured during an evening shoot with actress Margarita Levieva.

Levieva joined the cast of Daredevil: Born Again in December 2022, ahead of the initial round of production that took place before the WGA and SAG strikes shut it down. The actress, who is set to play Heather Glenn–one of Matt’s many flings from the comics–had been seen on set before but with Woll’s return, many expected her character’s role to be cut or reduced to make way for Karen Page and Matt to rekindle an old flame. While the set photos do show some kindling, Woll was nowhere to be found during yesterday’s filming.
Reports indicate that 3 new episodes of Daredevil: Born Again are set to be filmed in New York City in the immediate future. Those 3, along with the footage that was shot before the strikes, are said to compose the first part of the series which is expected to hit Disney Plus in 2025.

The New York Rangers started the 2025-26 season poorly, as the opening night at Madison Square Garden ended with a 3-0 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins. This result overshadowed the official debut of Mike Sullivan as coach of the Rangers and the first game of J.T. Miller as captain of the franchise. That said, two empty net goals at the end masked a game that was closer than the score reflects. Justin Brazeau scored near the end of the first period, and then there were two empty netters in the final minutes, from Brazeau and Blake Lizotte. Igor Shesterkin saved 27 of 28, keeping the Rangers alive for a long period. The match was stuck and there were few clear chances, remaining at 1-0 for almost the entire game. Sullivan's team fell into the defensive pace proposed by the Penguins. What went wrong for the Rangers in their loss to the Penguins It was not a total tactical disaster for the Rangers, but there were specific details that can be linked to the result. There was a lack of offensive interiority from the Blueshirts. New York lived on the perimeter, without traffic, without second chances, and without backdoor runs. It became evident that a goaltender in rhythm, like Arturs Silovs, sees everything and shuts you down. Although Zibanejad and Lafreniere generated volume, the team did not produce the type of danger that moves the scoreboard. There were also misalignments in the defensive pair made up of Adam Fox and Vladislav Gavrikov. The idea of Gavrikov operating as a physical stabilizer to free up Fox did not materialize. Whenever the first breakout fails, the team plays uphill, and the offense becomes more predictable. On the power play, there was a lack of timing and triangulation in the slot. And although on the penalty kill, new rotations were shown that worked in stretches, the defensive zone at five-on-five offered second chances that Shesterkin saved until he could no more. Decision-making under pressure is also an area of opportunity for the Rangers. In the final minutes, the pinches without backup showed anxiety more than an organized aggressiveness. Brazeau's goal came as a result of a lost face-off that was managed poorly, without clear guidance and roles. An elite team cannot afford to have that lack of synchronization. The goal resulted from a disorderly collapse toward the puck carrier, which led to a lost coverage and an open man in the slot. Had there been communication, a high F3, a quick switch to the netfront, and active sticks, that same pattern would have died in an outside shot without danger. It was many small details together that led to this defeat.
The Washington Commanders have an extra day this week to prepare for the Chicago Bears and heal up, which is needed for some of the injuries on the team. The team has been getting healthy at the right time, but they're still missing three key players who have missed time over the last few weeks. They would love to get them back for a primetime NFC matchup against the Bears, who are getting their own impact players back from injury. The biggest name for the Commanders to watch this week is wide receiver Terry McLaurin, and we got our first update on Wednesday. Terry McLaurin did not practice on Wednesday Everyone is wondering when McLaurin will make his return, especially with Jayden Daniels back from his own injury, and the hope is this week, with the extra day. Head coach Dan Quinn said on Monday that the team was optimistic about McLaurin's return, along with right guard Sam Cosmi and wide receiver Noah Brown, but they had to wait until the team practiced to see their availability. Well, the team showed up to practice on Wednesday, and McLaurin did not participate like Quinn warned right before the players took the field in his press conference. "You'll see Noah out at practice today," Quinn said. "Terry won't. And then with the extra day, we'll just kind of work our way through with Terry to see where we're at and just kind of watch as we're going through it with him and Noah both.” The team will practice again on Thursday before taking Friday off as a recovery day, then take the field again on Saturday and Sunday to get a final game status on players' availability for Monday night, including McLaurin. McLaurin didn't need surgery and avoided going to the IR, which would've put him out for four games, and the team is going into the third game since he was injured, making his return likely this week or next. The good news, however, is that Brown looks like he will be available this week for the first time in a while. Noah Brown is back at practice Regardless of whether McLaurin returns or not, getting Brown back would help the offense while Deebo Samuel and Luke McCaffrey have been carrying the load over the last two weeks. Brown is the one who caught the Hail Mary touchdown last season in this matchup, and who knows what plays he could make on Monday. The more weapons, the better. The offense should continue to lean on the run game, especially against a really bad Bears' run defense, but getting more weapons back for Daniels, who looked much better last week, will long a long way on Monday night. Hopefully, that includes McLaurin, but we will have to wait and see through the rest of the week.
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Jake Browning has officially been benched, and he is not taking it lightly. Browning has started the last three games for the Bengals in the wake of a toe injury that Joe Burrow suffered in Week 2. After going 0-3 in those games, the Bengals decided to acquire Joe Flacco in a trade with the Cleveland Browns on Tuesday. Bengals head coach Zac Taylor announced on Wednesday that Flacco will start in Week 6 against the Green Bay Packers. That means the new guy is taking Browning's job right away, which is hardly a surprise. Jake Browning is not happy about losing his job Browning spoke with reporters shortly after Taylor revealed that Flacco will start in Green Bay. The 29-year-old quarterback said the situation "sucks" but that he understands how the business of the NFL works. "I think it sucks but, like I said, everyone's in the middle of a season. I think, 'Welcome to pro football,'" Browning said. "If you don't play well, you're gonna get replaced, and that's what I'm going through." Browning also admitted he is angry over being benched. Though, he said he is not willing to shoulder the blame for everything that has gone wrong for Cincinnati since Burrow went down. "For me, I'm trying to respond the right way. Obviously, I'm pi--ed. If I wasn't pi--ed, then I shouldn't be in this locker room," Browning added. "I'm aware of the role I played in the offensive struggles over the last few weeks, but I'm also not shouldering the entire situation. I went through yesterday, watched my throws, tried to come up with some stuff I want to work on, and just doing that." Zac Taylor had no choice but to make a switch Browning threw three interceptions in Cincinnati's 37-24 loss to the Detroit Lions on Sunday. He completed 26 of 40 passes for 251 yards and three touchdowns as well, but anything positive that the veteran did came when the game was essentially out of hand. In his two starts prior to the Lions loss, Browning threw for a total of 265 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions. The Bengals scored 13 points in the two games combined. Ja'Marr Chase looked extremely frustrated at times and even had a heated exchange with Taylor on the sideline. Taylor had been facing tremendous pressure from fans to make a quarterback change. It would not be a surprise if Cincinnati's front office and some players expressed a desire for Browning to be benched, as well.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. is excited about the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs Round of 8 after looking at the standings. On Dale Jr. Download, Earnhardt revealed what the playoff standings look like heading into the three Round of 8 races. The top eight remaining drivers are Denny Hamlin (+8), Ryan Blaney (+6), Kyle Larson (+4), William Byron (+4), Christopher Bell (-4), Chase Elliott (-14), Chase Briscoe (-14), and Joey Logano (-24). Earnhardt said he was surprised to see Bell below the cut line since they “had him as an early favorite.” He also pointed out that Elliott and Briscoe “got a little work to do,” but he also said that “any of these guys can do it.” Earnhardt then revealed how the standings would look in the old Cup points system. He said Byron, who won this year’s NASCAR Regular Season championship, would be the points leader. Byron would be followed by Blaney (-27), Larson (-35), Bell (-46), Elliott (-64), Hamlin (-78), Briscoe (-100), and Logano (points not revealed). Earnhardt is right when it comes to any one of the drivers winning it all. The point differential between the drivers is not big, meaning that all eight will have to be locked in for the next three races to give themselves the best chance to secure a spot in the championship race at Phoenix. More on the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs Round of 8 BetMGM Sportsbook recently released its lastest NASCAR Cup Series Championship odds, and Blaney is the favorite at +400. He is followed by Bell (+450), Hamlin (+475), Larson (+475), Byron (+550), Elliott (+900), Briscoe (+900), and Logano (+1400). Of the eight drivers remaining in the playoffs, four have won the Cup Series title. Blaney won it in 2023, Larson won it in 2021, Elliott won it in 2020, and Logano won the championship three times (2018, 2022, and 2024). Logano came close to not making it to the Round of 8. On Sunday, he battled Ross Chastain for the final spot and got past him by four points. “Such a close finish there. Yeah, knew it was within a point there,” Logano said after the race at Charlotte. “I knew we were going to be tied there at the end, and Ross was going to do whatever he had to do to make it happen. Geesh, just wasn’t quite fast enough today with our car.”
