Actor Matt Gerald may have made his MCU debut in the Iron Man One-Shot all Hail The King, but it wasn’t until Daredevil Season one in April that we knew for sure he was Melvin Potter, the character who eventually becomes The Gladiator.

And now, thanks to Daredevil’s official Twitter, it looks like The Gladiator will make his debut next season.

Gladiator is big and strong and has sawblades on his arms as weapons and, given what we learned about Potter last season, despite being slightly mentally challenged, he’s a genius when it comes to building suits and weapons, so this is already something we can buy into. He did, afterall, make the red Daredevil suit…

Daredevil returns in 2016…

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
