Jon Bernthal's Punisher is set for a triumphant return in a Marvel special, following the conclusion of Daredevil: Born Again Season 1. This standalone adventure, described as a "shotgun blast of a story" by Marvel Television head Brad Winderbaum, will blend intense action with the emotional depth expected of a Frank Castle tale. Bernthal himself will contribute to the project as a writer, collaborating with We Own This City director Reinaldo Marcus Green.

The Punisher's one-shot special arrives as Marvel Television prepares to reintroduce the Defenders to the Disney+ lineup. This street-level superhero team, comprising Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist, will continue their stories within the MCU, having previously appeared on Netflix. While acknowledging the constraints of television production compared to the limitless possibilities of comic books, Winderbaum expressed excitement about exploring the creative potential within this expanded universe.
Daredevil: Born Again, premiering March 4th, picks up where the Netflix series left off, bringing back familiar faces like the Punisher and Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin. This time, they'll face a unique threat: the artfully sinister serial killer, Muse.
