Netflix’s Daredevil quickly garnered a reputation as one of the finest shows in the Marvel television landscape, praised for its gritty storytelling, complex characters, and stellar performances. Its integration into the MCU’s central timeline has now elevated its significance even further. MCU executive producer Brad Winderbaum told ScreeRant,

“But now that some time has passed; now that we see actually how well integrated the stories are, I think that I personally, Brad Winderbaum, would be confident in saying it is part of the Sacred Timeline.”

The show, which marked Marvel’s first foray into the world of streaming on Netflix, ran for three seasons from 2015 to 2018, with each season comprising 13 gripping, hour-long episodes. So, the news comes with a unique challenge for those who are not yet familiar with Daredevil’s journey.

New viewers are confronted with the task of watching 39 hours across three seasons to fully grasp Daredevil’s character evolution in the MCU. The prospect, however, promises a delightful immersion into the rich narrative tapestry of the series.

The decision to include Daredevil in the main continuity of the MCU is not merely a nostalgic nod to the past but a strategic move. It holds potential for storytelling pay-offs and the acknowledgment of other completed Marvel shows, such as Agents of SHIELD, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Runaways. This integration opens the door to the possibility of honoring the legacies of these characters and their respective story arcs in future MCU projects.
