"Daredevil" Season 3 premiere date is yet to be confirmed.

Hell's Kitchen's popular hero is coming back! Marvel confirmed on July 21, Thursday, that Netflix's "Daredevil" will return for a third season.

Marvel and Netflix made the announcement during the "Luke Cage" panel at San Diego's Comic-Con. "If you like Daredevil, there's going to be even more Daredevil in season three," Marvel's Jeph Loeb said during the panel discussion, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Not long after the confirmation, the show's official Twitter account shared a short teaser announcing the upcoming third season.

"Next stop: Hell's Kitchen. Daredevil Season 3 is coming soon," read the caption of the 28-second video, which shows a Hell's Kitchen subway station sign.

The Netflix series, which stars Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock a.k.a. Daredevil, is expected to premiere in 2017 with showrunners Doug Petrie and Marco Ramirez continuing on with the gritty superhero drama.

Even though no further details were revealed, the show is likely to see some changes in the cast with Jon Bernthal's character of Frank "The Punisher" Castle landing his own spinoff, series as announced earlier this year.

In addition to Daredevil Season 3, Marvel's upcoming shows include "Iron Fist," "Luke Cage" and season two of "Jessica Jones." Marvel unveiled teasers for both "Luke Cage" and "Iron Fist" at Thursday's event.

The panel also gave fans a sneak peek at the comic book company's highly anticipated crossover series "The Defenders," which unites all four of the above-mentioned superheroes. Think of it as a TV-version of "The Avengers," according to The Wrap.

"Daredevil" Season 2, which premiered on Netflix in March, ended with a finale that left the fate of Elektra (Elodie Yung) hanging in the balance. The finale also left viewers with many questions about Wilson Fisk and Matt's relationship with Karen, however, the "Defenders" teaser somewhat confirmed that Stick (Scott Glenn) and The Hand will play into the show's plot.
