The Flight Attendant star, Colin Woodell has reportedly joined Marvel’s upcoming “Daredevil: Born Again” Disney+ series.
The news comes from Insider Daniel RPK who has shared Colin Woodell (The Flight Attendant, The Purge) has joined the series as a yet unidentified villain.
Murphy’s Multiverse goes on to elaborate that “Woodell’s character looks to be set for just a portion of the 18-episode series but is also set to play a fairly significant role. Described as “intense and inscrutable”, it’s possible that Woodell could be portraying Muse, a serial killer who uses his victims’ blood and body parts to create art. The character was first introduced in Charles Soule’s run on Daredevil, which is believed to be one source of inspiration for Daredevil: Born Again.”
As always, since nothing has been confirmed by Marvel or Disney, we will treat this as a rumor for now.
