Daredevil: Born Again season 2 has felt very street-level. More than say, the first Avengers movie, Daredevil: Born Again's sophomore season captures the feel and spirit of New York City in the 21st century, even with a crazed maniac like Bullseye running around, throwing forks at his enemies.
One of the things that fans of the Daredevil Netflix show loved most about the original show was the visceral, meticulously choreographed fight sequences. And thus far, Born Again season 2 hasn't disappointed, especially with the latest fight scene involving Bullseye, which you can watch below.
On the official Daredevil: Born Again podcast, Bullseye actor Wilson Bethel revealed that the exhilarating sequence in season 2, episode 4 ("Gloves Off") was filmed all in one day. The scene involved "eighty" different camera setups, which, in case you're not familiar with film production, is a lot because of how time-consuming it is to set up a camera and adjust the lights to keep everything looking consistent from angle to angle. Again, this was shot all in one day!
"[If this] was like a Marvel movie version of the show, that would have been three weeks to film that sequence. And we did it in a day... It felt like we were making the most gangster independent film you've ever seen in your life, and everybody's just firing on all cylinders for 12 or 14 hours or whatever it was. And by the time you get to the last shot, there's this sense of like, 'Holy shit, we just did this,'" said Bethel.
It seems that everyone on set that day for the diner scene was locked in on making it the best that it could be, and their hard work paid off!
Daredevil: Born Again is streaming now on Disney+.
