Despite the fact that Season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again hasn’t yet reached the midway point, Marvel Studios has made it clear that the Mayor Fisk storyline will not carry into Season 3. Fans believed the first teaser for Spider-Man: Brand New Day revealed the Kingpin’s successor in Gracie Hall and recent photos from New York City set of the third season have confirmed that belief.
It seems as though Shelia Rivera will be filling the Wilson Fisk-sized void in the Mayor’s office in Season 3 and that she’ll be sharing some scenes with Karen Page, who no longer needs to be lurking in the shadows.
With the return of Luke Cage also confirmed, it’ll be interesting to see if Rivera remains Mayor or if Cage looks to throw his name in the ring, should a new election be taking place. Cage followed Fisk’s reign of terror in the comics but the MCU iteration of Harlem’s Hero is quite different from his MCU counterpart.
