While not surprising, considering where the storyline appeared to be heading after the end of THE DEFENDERS, Marvel officially announced today that actor Vincent D'Onofrio would be returning for season 3.
Also, we learned that the new season will have a new showrunner Erik Oleson. He has worked on ARROW and MAN IN THE HIGH CASTLE.
Marvel's Jeph Loeb had this to say:
"Vincent is an exceptional actor who returns with the incredible gravitas he brings to Fisk,” said executive producer, Jeph Loeb, adding, “we’re very excited how Marvel’s Daredevil develops through the creative lens and guidance of our new showrunner, Erik Oleson."
The official Daredevil account on Twitter also played up the announcement:

One thing to notice in the press release:
"All episodes of the first and second seasons of “Marvel’s Daredevil” are currently streaming on Netflix, with season three slated for release in 2018."
So while we don't have a date, it appears after JESSICA JONES S2, LUKE CAGE S2, we're getting DAREDEVIL S3 in the same year, so possible October/November?
