#dds3 kinda already did

Maybe I should get out my red nose and funny-colored wig, but I’m willing that they’re saving Karen for a more Punisher-centric show if they aren’t bringing her back/can’t bring her back for Daredevil. I want to believe Feige isn’t dumb, he has to know how big a deal Kastle is and how magnetic Jon & Deb are in scenes together. I’m probably not going to give up hope until the show airs. Future me can deal with processing the loss if it comes 🤷🏻‍♀️

As much as I’m happy for Jon coming back I’m also sad as The Hollywood Reporter is saying that both Deborah and Elden won’t be back as Karen and Foggy. :( They’re not sure yet if the roles will be recast or just written out. My guess is maybe a mix as I’ve already seen rumors they recast Vanessa and possibly Elektra, as well as given Fisk and Vanessa their son pretty much confirming this Matt and now Frank are the MCU’s versions and not the part of the multiverse the Netflix shows took place in. So that could support a recast likely for Foggy. I personally don’t think Karen’s even going to be a character especially with Matt already having at least 3 love interests in the MCU now with Jennifer/She-Hulk, Maya/Echo, and if there is a new Elektra. Though I still wouldn’t rule out Karen if they make a “Punisher” movie/show and maybe this MCU version of her, hopefully still Deborah, knows Frank but not Matt. I’m still going to watch as I still love all the characters and to see the MCU versions of them, but I will miss Deborah and Elden and possibly their characters so much.

ETA: I forgot about how in the comics storyline of “Born Again” all that bad stuff that happened to Karen so it’s a good thing she’s not there for at least that so none of it will happen to her, but still said she likely doesn’t exist in the MCU or at least everything that happened in the Netflix “Daredevil” show never happened in the MCU (except maybe “The Punisher” which would be interesting how they’d write that).
