Despite the fact that Fisk saw him kill them in cold blood, he conceals this by falsely corroborating Dex's rationale to the FBI. Foggy, unhappy with Matt's demands, tells Karen that Matt is alive and then is convinced by his girlfriend [[Marci Stahl]] to run for district attorney against Tower in order to ensure that Fisk is brought to justice. Foggy gains the support of the [[New York Police Department]], who view Fisk as a cop killer.

Fisk reviews a file from Manning on Dex and learns that he used his skillful aim to kill his baseball coach as a child. He was taught to be more empathetic through therapy as he grew up, but he feigned this to conceal his psychopathic tendencies. In one incident when he worked for a suicide prevention hotline, he encouraged a caller to kill someone else rather than himself. It was there that he met and fell in love with Julie, whom he now finds working at the hotel. He accidentally reveals to her that he has been stalking her.

Matt visits Karen to ask for her help in finding Evans and offers to testify against Fisk. Foggy arranges a meeting between a newly promoted Nadeem and Karen at the ''New York Bulletin'', where she will interview Evans about Fisk's plans. In exchange for Nadeem considering Evans' testimony, Matt agrees to turn himself in to the FBI in order to clear his name. Distraught over Julie, Dex considers committing suicide but is interrupted by Fisk, who proposes an alternative. Dex instead goes to the ''New York Bulletin'' dressed as Daredevil, fights off Matt, and kills Evans before he can talk. Dex is then confronted by the FBI, including Nadeem, and dispatches the agents before escaping, leading the FBI to believe that Daredevil assaulted them. | LineColor = A91E1E }}

Karen later asks her father [[Paxton Page|Paxton]] if she could go spend some time at home with him, but he says the timing isn't great. Foggy believes that he has worked out what Fisk is planning. Matt, angry that he put his friends in harm's way and worried about the skill of the pretend Daredevil, visits [[Melvin Potter (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Melvin Potter]], the man who created the Daredevil suit. Potter confirms that Fisk forced him to create a copy of the suit and reveals that the pretender was an FBI agent.

Matt and Nadeem break into Dex's apartment but cannot find proof that he was the attacker, only some recordings of his therapy sessions which reveal his psychopathic tendencies.

With Vanessa on her way back to New York City, Fisk goes to retrieve the painting she gave him when they first met; it is in the possession of [[Esther Falb]], a [[Holocaust]] survivor whose family were the original owners of the painting. Fisk decides to let her keep it.

Foggy also offers to withdraw from the race for district attorney, and they get Nadeem's family to safety. Meanwhile, Karen calls a press conference to announce what Nadeem is doing so the public is aware given that his testimony would be sealed. Matt and Foggy celebrate after the hearing, with Foggy hinting that he would like to work with Matt once again. However, Fisk controls the jury, and so the hearing has no effect.

==Production== ===Development=== At the 2016 [[San Diego Comic-Con]], Marvel and [[Netflix]] revealed the series had been renewed for a third season, with the expectation that [[Doug Petrie]] and [[Marco Ramirez (writer)|Marco Ramirez]] would return as showrunners from the second season.<ref name="Season3" /> In October 2017, it was announced that [[Erik Oleson]] would replace Petrie and Ramirez as showrunner for the season.<ref name="Oleson" /> The season had yet to be scheduled for release by the end of July 2018, and television critics wondered whether the quality of the season was to blame on this. Netflix VP Cindy Holland responded that the scheduling of the various [[Marvel's Netflix television series|Marvel Netflix series]], especially the crossover miniseries ''[[The Defenders (miniseries)|The Defenders]]'' which required cast members from all of the series to come together, was to blame for the delay, and that the company had no issue with the quality of the season; on the contrary, Holland described the season as "fantastic" and felt it was a "real return to form" for the series.<ref name="HollandJul2018" />
===Writing=== The ending of the miniseries ''The Defenders'', which sees [[Matt Murdock (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Matt Murdock]] waking up in a convent surrounded by nuns after being presumed dead, implied elements of the season would be inspired by the "[[Born Again (comics)|Born Again]]" [[story arc]].<ref name="DefendersEnding" /><ref name="DefendersEnding2" /> [[Charlie Cox]] was excited to adapt "Born Again", calling it "an amazing story" and that the implications of the story on the season "would be {{em|very}} exciting". He cautioned, however, that it would not be a "page-for-page" adaptation, "because if you do [that], then you become a foregone conclusion. There may be elements from "Born Again", but I'm sure there will be elements that are unfamiliar and surprising and different in order for the show to be compelling to fans who know the comics very well."<ref name="CoxTHRAug2017" /> Oleson crafted an original story for the season, taking "pieces of some of my favorite comic book runs, that told a larger story". When [[Pitch (filmmaking)|pitching]] his ideas to Marvel, Oleson expected "more pushback" from them, but said "Marvel was incredibly excited about the storyline" and gave him "complete freedom". Executive producer [[Jeph Loeb]] did note that despite this apparent freedom, Oleson was still required to deal with Murdock's death in ''The Defenders'' which was part of "a fairly good idea as to what [Marvel] wanted to tackle in terms of story" before Oleson presented his ideas.<ref name="EWFirstLookSep2018" /> Oleson drew inspiration from "Born Again" and "[[Guardian Devil]]" for the tone of the season.<ref name="Collider40Things" /> Building the season structurally, Oleson felt if any viewer was "a devout Catholic [...] you could read into the events of the early episodes as a message from God to Matt".<ref name="OlesonNewsweek" />
At the start of the season, Oleson noted that Murdock would be "broken physically, broken emotionally, and broken spiritually", with his heightened senses failing him. Oleson added, "He's angry at God, he's angry at the fact that he had risked his life to do God's work, and he's questioning whether or not he was a fool." This results in Murdock donning his original black suit, similar to the one he wore in season one, since he "goes to pretty much the darkest place you can" and is at a point, Oleson notes, "[w]hen he realizes that he's incapable of being Daredevil, [and] he would rather just end it than go forward in his life without abilities."<ref name="EWFirstLookSep2018" /> This also allowed Oleson to return the character "to the core idea" of being a boxer's son, "where his fighting style was more brutal and kind of close in combat".<ref name="OlesonWashingtonPost" /> Oleson also wanted "to make the action sequences matter in ways that reflected on characters, or had real stakes". He added, "the best writing is one where the action sequences are an inherent part of the story and you cannot predict that the action is going to turn out a certain way."<ref name="EWSingleTakeFight" />
Regarding the return of [[Wilson Fisk (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Wilson Fisk / Kingpin]], Oleson called him "smarter, more calculated, and more manipulative", and felt his inclusion allowed the ability to "tell a story that's relevant to the world around us. I looked at the show as a way to examine how tyrants manipulate in order to push their own agenda and cause fear and distrust." Loeb felt the season went "back to the world of the crime story".<ref name="EWFirstLookSep2018" /> [[Karen Page (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Karen Page]]'s backstory is further explored in the season, with Woll explaining it reveals "why shooting someone <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[James Wesley (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|James Wesley]]<nowiki>]</nowiki> and covering it up is a bit more in her wheelhouse," while [[Foggy Nelson (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Foggy Nelson]]'s family and additional backstory is also seen.<ref name="Collider40Things" /> All of the supporting characters in the season were treated "as emotionally real people as opposed to treating them as props or devices". Oleson wanted them to be "the protagonist of their own journey", modeling this approach after the series ''[[Breaking Bad]]'', ''[[Game of Thrones]]'', ''[[The Sopranos]]'', and ''[[The Wire]]''.<ref name="OlesonNewsweek" />
[[Benjamin Poindexter (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Benjamin "Dex" Poindexter]] does not go by [[Bullseye (Marvel Comics)|Bullseye]] in the season. In the season's final sequence, Dex's spine is being operated on before the camera zooms into his face and a bullseye appears in his eye.<ref name="NewsweekBullseye" /> Oleson "was very interested in telling an [[origin story]] not only about how a character we know from the comics as a full-blown psychopath and killer, but how somebody in real life could be turned into something like that." This origin also spoke to the overall theme for the season of fear, which touched the story arcs of Murdock, Page, and Fisk as well. Psychiatrists and psychologists were consulted to help create "a realistic portrait of Dex and how he might be able to turn into Bullseye".<ref name="OlesonNewsweek" />
===Casting=== [[Charlie Cox]], [[Deborah Ann Woll]], [[Elden Henson]], and [[Vincent D'Onofrio]] all return in the season, reprising their roles as [[Matt Murdock (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Matt Murdock / Daredevil]], [[Karen Page (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Karen Page]], [[Foggy Nelson (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Franklin "Foggy" Nelson]], and [[Wilson Fisk (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Wilson Fisk / Kingpin]], respectively.<ref name="Oleson" /> Rider also returns as [[Blake Tower (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Blake Tower]].<ref name="RiderMcRobbie" /> In November 2017, [[Wilson Bethel]] was cast as a new series regular, [[Benjamin Poindexter (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Benjamin "Dex" Poindexter]],<ref name="Bethel" /><ref name="Bullseye" /> and in January 2018, [[Joanne Whalley]] was revealed to have been cast as [[Maggie Grace (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Maggie Grace]], a nun who cares deeply about Murdock's safety;<ref name="Whalley" /><ref name="WhalleyCollider" /> she was mentioned at the end of ''[[The Defenders (miniseries)|The Defenders]]''.<ref name="DefendersEnding" /> Jay Ali was cast as [[FBI]] agent [[Ray Nadeem|Rahul "Ray" Nadeem]], by March.<ref name="Ali" />

Former ''Daredevil'' comic writer and editor [[Roy Thomas]] has a [[cameo appearance]] as a prison inmate in "Blindsided".<ref>{{Cite web |last=[[Johnston, Rich]] |date=2018-11-01 |title=Roy Thomas Talks at Length About His Cameo on Marvel's Daredevil Season 3 |url=https://www.bleedingcool.com/2018/11/01/roy-thomas-cameo-marvel-daredevil-season-3/ |access-date=2019-08-20 |website=[[Bleeding Cool]] |language=en-US}}</ref>
===Design=== [[Costume designer]] Liz Vastola noted Daredevil's black suit was "purposely ripped and jagged to highlight Matt's state of mind" throughout the season. Vastola described Page's wardrobe as "fucking fierce" as Page transitions into more of an investigative journalist. Foggy Nelson's look is a "complete 180" from what he was wearing in season one, with the character now wearing suits made by [[Martin Greenfield Clothiers]].<ref name="Collider40Things" />
===Filming=== Filming for the season began on November 13, 2017, in [[New York City]].<ref name="FilmingStart" /> A week of filming for the season in March 2018 took place in the town of [[Windham, New York]], with set photos revealing that the town was representing Fagan Corners, Vermont,<ref name="WindhamFilming" /> the hometown of Karen Page in the comics.<ref name="FaganCorners" /> The production paid for the renovation of a local store to portray a diner for the series, and used the town's emergency helicopter pad. Additional filming locations for the week included nearby ski areas and a country club.<ref name="WindhamFilming" /> The exterior of the [[Lotte New York Palace Hotel]] served as the building of Fisk's penthouse while under FBI surveillance.<ref name="Collider40Things" /> An abandoned prison in [[Staten Island]] was used for the riot sequence in episode four.<ref>{{Cite web |date=October 22, 2018 |title=How Daredevil Filmed Its 10-Minute Prison Fight in a Single Take |url=https://www.vulture.com/2018/10/daredevil-season-3-one-take-fight-scene.html}}</ref> Filming for the season was completed by mid-June 2018.<ref name="SDCCPlans" />
"Blindsided" features a long action sequence filmed in a [[Long take|single take]]. Oleson credited the episode's director Alex García López, writer Lewaa Nasserdeen, and the stunt team for conceiving the idea. Once the sequence was decided, Oleson asked Marvel to give them a full day to rehearse the sequence, which "no one had ever done before", since "it required every single member of the crew to work in perfect sync." Oleson said once "the crew finally pulled it off, it was something spectacular that injected adrenaline into the crew for the remainder of the season." The sequence, which does not feature any hidden edit cuts, was meant to be a "homage, and then one-upping" of the sequence from season one. Several moments were included in the sequence where the editing team could add a cut if needed, though they did not need them. While editing the episode, Oleson increased the lighting in certain shots "so that the audience could see that we never cut the camera".<ref name="EWSingleTakeFight" /> Cox called the completed sequence "amazing", adding it was "a real testament to the stunt team".<ref name="CoxSingleTakeFight" />
===Music=== Composer [[John Paesano]] once again returns for the season. A soundtrack album for the season was released digitally by [[Hollywood Records]] on October 19, 2018.<ref name="Soundtrack" />
