The timings for the show’s release have been confirmed - and unfortunately it is disappointing news for fans on this side of the Atlantic. Here’s all you need to know:

Why isn’t Daredevil: Born Again on Disney Plus today?

The trailers and promo material for the highly anticipated MCU series all feature the start date of March 4. So you might be expecting to be able to get home tonight and be able to start the new series.

However unlike most Disney Plus releases, Daredevil: Born Again will not be dropping episodes at 8am UK time on the streaming service. Instead it will be released at prime time in America - and that means British viewers will have to wait until tomorrow (March 5).

Episodes of the Marvel series will air at 6pm PT/ 9pm ET in the US, starting today (March 4). Unfortunately, due to the differences in time zones, it works out as 12am the next day for UK viewers.

So you may have to work hard to avoid spoilers on social media, unless you are able to stay until the early hours to watch.
