Showrunner Dario Scardpane on Foggy's death his impact and whether he is truly dead in 'DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN': "There’s always room for surprises, and I don’t want to get hopes up, nor do I want to give anything away. I think Charlie’s already addressed this. There are versions in the books where Foggyʼs death was faked. There are different runs that have done different things, but in our version of Daredevil: Born Again, in order to kind of kick the story off in a way that we didn’t take lightly. That loss colors everything that Matt does in every episode from here on out. So, to make that, “Oh, it was all a dream,” or “Oh, it was fake,” really lessens the impact on Matt, and Karen, and their little nuclear family. This is Marvel, man. You have characters playing other characters 10 years later. Anything can happen, but in our story, the loss of Foggy is very real and has a very real impact on Matt for the entirety of the story. I think you see that in episode 5 where this layer cake that we made of Matt contemplating forgiving the man who killed Foggy, and remembering Foggy’s kind of commitment to mercy, that stuff only really works if Foggy’s gone-gone."
