Rumor: Netflix Close To Picking Up A Standalone ‘Punisher’ Series!
Briefly: This is exciting.
Of course, Marvel and Netflix refused to comment, so nothing is official at this point, but (understandably), the companies are apparently looking into a dedicated series based on The Punisher.
The character is set to debut in the universe with the March release of Daredevil’s second season, and will be portrayed by The Walking Dead alum Jon Bernthal.
According to TVLine, early buzz on Bernthal’s performance has been exceptional, and as fans have been waiting years (decades) for a truly great portrayal of The Punisher, Marvel/Netflix would be crazy not to capitalize on it.
Which story arc would you like to see told in a standalone series? What do you think of Bernthal as The Punisher? Sound out below!
