Punisher fans are in for a treat with the upcoming MCU series on Disney Plus, as Frank Castle will be making his return in a new series.
This follows the success of The Defenders franchise, which was previously housed on Netflix but is now fully integrated into Disney Plus.
The Punisher Returns
Before Disney Plus, Netflix was the home of Marvel’s best live-action series, including The Punisher, Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage. Now, all of these shows are available on Disney Plus, with some getting reboots.
Daredevil: Born Again is set to premiere in just two months, with Charlie Cox reprising his role as Matt Murdock, alongside returning characters like Foggy Nelson, Karen Page, and Wilson Fisk.
Punisher’s New Series
The most exciting news for fans of Frank Castle is that not only will he appear in Daredevil: Born Again, but he will also be getting his own series on Disney Plus.
While The Punisher was known for its intense violence on Netflix, there were concerns about how Disney Plus would handle the character’s brutal antics. According to reports, The Punisher series will continue directly from the Netflix show, potentially maintaining its mature tone.
A Bigger MCU Future
If the success of Daredevil: Born Again paves the way, we might even see a fourth season of Jessica Jones with Krysten Ritter returning as the powerful private investigator.
For now, fans can look forward to Daredevil: Born Again on March 4, 2025, with high hopes for Frank Castle’s return.
