The third episode of Daredevil: Born Again hides a wink that could connect with the Multiverse Spider-Man
A wink indicating the Morales family
During a key scene of the episode, Matt Murdock, played by Charlie Coxmention To Agent Morales While he acts as a defense lawyer of Hector Ayalaalias white tiger, embodied by Kamar de Los Reyes. This detail would not be a simple line of dialogue if it were not for the possibility that this agent Morales is actually Jefferson Moralesthe father of thousands.
In Marvel Comics, Jefferson was represented in several ways. Initially, his surname was Davis, but in the story of Miles Morales: Spider-Man #22 (2021), he decides to adopt his wife’s surname, who connects him directly to the thousands. Furthermore, in the universe of video games of Sleepless games And in the films of SpiderJefferson is a police officer, who adapts to the reference made Daredevil: born again.
A detail that could have repercussions on UCM
While this could only be a coincidence, the history of Marvel with Easter eggs suggests that any reference is carefully designed. Since the beginning of the Marvel film universe (UCM), we have seen how small details in a film or series served as seeds for future stories. Although Miles Morales has not yet appeared in the UCM, this wink could be a subtle way to insinuate its presence in this universe.
The theory is up to the most strength if we remember that in Spider-Man: through the spider-Versetto (2023), thousands refer to the father how Morales agentwhich reiterates the idea that his surname has established himself in the current narrative of Marvel.
The obstacle of Spider-Man rights
Of course, not everything is so simple. Brad WinderbaumHead of television, streaming and animation of Marvel Studios, confirmed last month that Sony still has the long-term television rights of Spider-Man. This means that any appearance of Morales Mobiles in a Disney+ series would need Sony’s approval.
Even like that, the wink Daredevil: born again It could be a first step to build a possible entry of thousands of UCMs in the future. With the multiverse already unleashed and the growing references to the men of Spider of different sizes, it would not be unreasonable to think that Marvel is leaving indications on the arrival of thousands of franchising.
The importance of Daredevil in the UCM
From his first appearance in the Netflix series in 2015, Daredevil has become one of the most loved characters of the Marvel universe. His return with Born again Not only confirms its importance within the franchise, but also opens the doors to future interactions with other UCM heroes. If the series is willing to plant seeds such as the reference to “Morales Officer”, it is possible that Matt Murdock has a key role in the future integration of characters such as Miles Morales.
Another interesting point is that Daredevil interacted with Spider-Man in the comics on several occasionsBeing part of the Street Heroes circle in New York with characters like Luke Cage and Jessica Jones. This connection could be used in the UCM if Sony and Marvel signs an agreement to bring thousands of morality to a real action.
A future for thousands of morals in the UCM?
Despite the legal restrictions, fans showed enormous interest in seeing thousands of Morales to share the screen with the heroes of the UCM. The popularity of the character, led by Sony’s animated films and by Insomniac games has made him one of Marvel’s most loved figures in recent years.
If Marvel Studios and Sony make an agreement, it could only be a matter of time before seeing thousands of UCM roads. In the meantime, we will be careful of the next episodes of Daredevil: born again To see if this Easter egg has more repercussions or if you stay alone in a hidden reference for multiple retailers.
