Daredevil: Born Again is currently being shot in New York City and, if a new rumour is to be believed, Jon Bernthal is back on set filming scenes as The Punisher.
After first showing up as the vigilante in Daredevil season 2, the character would go on to appear in two seasons of his spin-off series. The fact Marvel Studios has plans for Frank Castle is news that's been welcomed by fans and trusted insider @CanWeGetToast has shared some very intriguing intel about a run-in between The Punisher and the NYPD...
Yes, it appears Marvel Studios will indeed address the way The Punisher's logo has been co-opted by certain groups, making it clear that Frank doesn't approve.
The scooper would also go on to suggest that the vigilante will be at the top of The Kingpin's list as he runs for New York City Mayor in an effort to stop superheroes from patrolling the Big Apple's streets. If he's successful, that will have a huge impact on Daredevil, Spider-Man, and many other street-level do-gooders.
It's also being reported that there are plans in place for The Punisher to get his own series on Disney+. We know Marvel Studios plans to focus on quantity over quality moving forward, but could Frank finally get the live-action treatment he deserves?
Netflix's The Punisher was only okay, and with Kevin Feige calling the shots, Bernthal might just end up getting the platform he deserves to bring this character to life on screen.
