Jon Bernthal's Punisher to Return in Marvel Special Post-Daredevil: Born Again

Apr 13,2025 Author: Alexander

Fans of the gritty Marvel universe are in for a thrilling treat as Jon Bernthal's iconic portrayal of the Punisher is set to make a comeback following the premiere of Daredevil: Born Again Season 1. This time, Frank Castle will take center stage in a Marvel special reminiscent of the style seen in the Guardians of the Galaxy specials. Entertainment Weekly revealed that Bernthal isn't just returning to the screen; he's also stepping behind the scenes to co-write the script alongside We Own This City director Reinaldo Marcus Green.

Brad Winderbaum, head of Marvel Television, shared his excitement about the project, describing it as "a shotgun blast of a story, but also has all the pathos and emotion that you want out of a Frank Castle story." This unique blend of action and emotion promises to deliver a powerful narrative that fans of the Punisher will eagerly anticipate.

The announcement of the Punisher one-shot aligns with Marvel Television's broader strategy to revive the Defenders on Disney+. This beloved street-level superhero team, featuring Matt Murdock's Daredevil, Krysten Ritter's Jessica Jones, Mike Colter's Luke Cage, and Finn Jones' Iron Fist, previously captivated audiences on Netflix. Now, with their episodes migrated to Disney+ and integrated into the MCU canon, the anticipation for their return is palpable.

Brad Winderbaum expressed enthusiasm about exploring this universe further, acknowledging the challenges of storytelling within the constraints of television production compared to the limitless possibilities of comic books. "It is certainly something that is creatively extremely exciting and that we are very much exploring," he told Entertainment Weekly, hinting at the expansive plans for these characters.

Daredevil: Born Again, set to premiere on March 4, picks up where the Netflix series left off, bringing back key characters including Bernthal's Punisher and Vincent D'Onofrio's Wilson Fisk (Kingpin). The new season introduces a fresh threat in the form of the artistically inclined serial killer known as Muse, promising an intense and visually captivating storyline that continues to delve into the dark corners of the Marvel universe.
