Without the decision to retool Born Again, the The Defenders Saga shows would have been Non-Canonical and Spider-Man: No Way Home and She-Hulk would have been the extent of what we knew about - and the first we saw of - Matt Murdock on the Sacred Timeline.
I was under the impression the Netflix seasons would have still been canon to Born Again, but that the connections back to it just wouldn't have been as big a part of the show as they were in the final version.
This is the best answer.
Yeah, canonacity be damned, AOS was an awesome show. It did have a few dips in quality, but when the show was at it's best, I was some of the best Marvel stuff we were getting onscreen.

You misunderstood what the retool meant, then, because Brad Winderbaum, Charlie Cox, Vincent D'Onofrio, and the original Showrunners of Born Again (whose names I don't remember right now) have all confirmed that it was originally intended to be a complete Canonical 'clean slate' for Matt and Wilson Fisk's characters.

My impression was that the original intent was to be more of a soft reboot, keeping only certain things while ignoring or contradicting others. Then the decision was made to do it as a true continuation instead.
 
By the way, Alba Baptista shot the last Voltron movie. I wonder how she shot it while pregnant?
What do you mean? Plenty of pregnant women shoot film and television without any issues and are able to hid the pregnancy if necessary. No CGI necessary (see Gates McFadden in season three of TNG among many examples).

I hadn't heard there was a live-action Voltron movie, but Wikipedia says it filmed from December 2024 to May 2025. So she would've only been 4 months along at the end of filming, and if she was still filming at the time, it would've been easy enough to conceal, especially with modern digital techniques.
 
Let's say Thunderbolt Ross ran for two terms as President, could Red Hulk run for his own term?

The 22nd Amendment specifies that "no person" can be elected president more than twice. I think it would be difficult to argue that a Hulk is a separate person rather than an alternate form of the same person. Apparently some scholars have argued that the alternate personalities of someone with dissociative identity disorder should be legally treated as distinct people, though I don't think that would hold up to medical analysis, since they're really just parts of a single personality that are dissociated from each other.

I think it's more likely that a person with Hulkism (to coin a term, I think) would be seen as a single person with a medical disorder than as two different people. After all, Article II specifies that "The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America," singular. Two people cannot be President of the United States at the same time, so if a person with Hulkism were legally recognized as two people, they'd be disqualified from the office anyway.

She wouldn't be showing enough at four months to noticeable at all, unless they were trying to shoot her in skin tight clothes or a bikini and then it would only be noticeable from certain angles.

I understand.
 
The Challenge cast member Olivia Kaiser filmed the majority of this currently-airing season (41) pregnant (without anyone knowing) because she and her boyfriend, Theo Campbell, 'got frisky' (without protection) early on in the filming, so not every woman 'visibly shows'.

Is that the MTV program with the contestant named Turabi who competes in Survivor Türkiye?
