A new video from the New York City set of ‘Daredevil: Born Again’ Season 3 is making waves online. The footage shows actor Wilson Bethel fully suited up as the deadly villain Bullseye. This marks the clearest look yet at his costume for the upcoming episodes, and fans are noticing a major upgrade.
The video, which spread quickly across social media on May 27, 2026, captures Bethel filming on location. He is wearing a tactical black outfit that looks much closer to the character’s classic comic book design. This new appearance fixes what many viewers felt was missing in previous seasons.
Comic-Accurate Details Finally Arrive for Bullseye
When Wilson Bethel first played Benjamin “Dex” Poindexter in the original Netflix Daredevil series, the character wore FBI gear. In Born Again Season 1, his suit was a blue-gray tactical set with a target symbol on the chest. Season 2 gave him the signature bullseye logo, but the overall look still felt rough.
The new set video shows a big change. The costume now has a black and gray color scheme with visible armor plating. Most importantly, the classic bullseye symbols are now clearly placed on his hands and wrists. This detail is a direct nod to the Marvel comics where Bullseye uses these marks to show off his perfect aim.
One specific part of the costume has fans talking. The helmet seen in the photos appears to have a built-in camera system. This adds a modern twist to the villain, suggesting that this version of Bullseye is working for a more organized, high-tech team.
Bethel’s Bullseye Now Works as a Government Operative
The costume change is not random. It matches a major story shift for the character. Wilson Bethel recently confirmed that after the events of Season 2, his character is no longer a lone criminal.
“It’s a really exciting point of departure for the next stage of things… he is a phenomenally talented killer who is now working for the CIA or some kind of Black Ops situation.” – Wilson Bethel
In the Season 2 finale, Bullseye left New York on a plane with Mr. Charles, a CIA-linked figure working for Valentina Allegra de Fontaine. This move takes him out of Wilson Fisk’s shadow. He now has a “clean slate” and operates under government control. The new armored, high-tech suit fits perfectly with this idea of a government-sanctioned assassin.

Production for Daredevil: Born Again Season 3 started in early 2026. The renewal actually happened months before Season 2 even premiered back in September 2025. Besides Bethel, set photos have also shown Charlie Cox (Daredevil), Vincent D’Onofrio (Kingpin), and Deborah Ann Woll (Karen Page) filming scenes.
The show is expected to hit Disney+ in 2027 as part of the MCU’s Phase Six lineup. For now, Marvel is keeping the full plot under wraps. However, the return of Bullseye with a comic-accurate look and a new government job suggests he will play a much bigger role this time.
