Daredevil Jon Bernthal IS Frank Castle / The Punisher! - Part 1

[Iron_Stark]

**** YES!!!!! **** YES!!!! **** YES!!!!

Jon Bernthal was amazing, his Punisher was amazing, this is great news!! I cannot wait!!

And hopefully I get to meet him at comic con at the end of May!

 

[Visualiza]

I couldn't be happier to hear this. Excellent choice for a showrunner, too.

 

[chamber-music]

Awesome, I love the Punisher.

Frank Castle can definitely support his own show.

I wonder who they will cast as David Linus "Microchip" Lieberman?

I think The Trust from from Circle Of Blood would make great villains for the first season.

 

[Slick]

**** yes. This was good news to wake up too.

 

[Chip Chipperson]

this was the sweetest news to wake up to, no kidding

We all deserve some more frank in our lives

 

[chamber-music]

I hope the Kingpin appears in The Punisher as well.

 

[Kanon]

This is a match made in heaven

 

[djsunyc]

punisher series with a daredevil cameo of course

 

[Superhero 101]

Awesome news!!

 

[Mister J]

Expected, but still... YAAAAASSSSSSSSSS!!

punisher series with a daredevil cameo of course

"See ya around, Red."

 

[Dark Raven]

Great news. Punisher was one of the highlights of DD season 2 and was interesting to watch in his own right. Sometimes it even seemed more like a Punisher series with DD guest starring.

It would be great to have appearances from DD, Karen and Kingpin. We also need a Punisher forum now.

 

[BrollySupersj]

I knew it would happen. Reaction to Bernthal was far too positive to just keep him as a supporting character. Thank you Marvel. I can't ****ing wait.

 

[marieylee]

Yay. Bernthal really sold me. I do hope they keep it at 10 episodes though (unlikely). I felt that both DD and JJ dragged a bit and could've easily been done in 10 episodes. I do wonder what does it mean for future seasons of Luke Cage and/or Iron Fist.

With LC, IF, Defenders, JJ S2, DD S3, and now Punisher, how will that affect the other netflix shows? I'm guessing they will do Heroes for Hire if both LC/IF are well recieved to combine the 2. I still want a Moonknight show.

 

[Spector99]

Awesome news!!!



But if The Punisher comes after The Defenders...does that mean we will have to wait until spring 2018?

 

[BrollySupersj]

I just hope the series isn't too far away.


So far we got Luke Cage in September, then Iron Fist, I'm assuming, will occupy Daredevil's spot in March/April 2017. Since the Defenders is filming now (or is it soon?) I assume that will be out around November 2017 like Jessica Jones. That's if Marvel isn't moving anything around.

I'm guessing we might have to wait till Spring or Fall 2018.

 

[Smilodon]

With an Hannibal alum of all people running the show too. This has a chance of being the best Defenders related series of them all. Congrats to Jon.

 

[Nathan]

Took them long enough.

 

[Kyle]

Who would be the best villain? I personally would seriously dig Jigsaw. Show him pre Jigsaw for the first part of the season, then post getting messed up in the second part of it. Maybe commentating on how far the Punisher is going with fighting crime and the psychological impact this is having on the criminal element? I would absolutely love if they keep and repeat his sic vis para bellum quote somewhere in here - while most famous among general audiences for being in the film, it was also a great moment in 1994's 'Punisher: Year One.'

 

[BlackFox]

Magnificent news, simply over the moon about this t:

 

[terry78]

All falling into place...good....good.

 

[Golgo-13]

So SHH where's that Punisher forum......?

 

[Punisher_MAX]

I hope they adapt Welcome Back, Frank in some capacity. Him taking on the Gnucci's would be a pretty cool intro.

 

[Golgo-13]

Jigsaw and Kingpin!

 

[chamber-music]

I could see Microchip and either Lynn Michaels or Rachel Cole-Alves being supporting characters

 

[TheVileOne]

OK, so how are going to get the rollout for these shows now?

Next year we have Iron Fist and Defenders. It's pretty clear that Jessica Jones S2 and Daredevil S3 are clearly going on hold until Defenders is done.

And now we have The Punisher. Just saying, we will need more than two shows a year very soon.
