Jon Bernthal Returns to Hell Kitchen
In an exciting development for Marvel fans, Jon Bernthal is reprising his role as Frank Castle, aka The Punisher, in the upcoming Disney+ series “Daredevil: Born Again.” A behind-the-scenes set image has surfaced, giving us a glimpse of Bernthal’s return to the gritty streets of Hell’s Kitchen.
The new series, set as a soft reboot within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), aims to build on the legacy of the original Netflix “Daredevil” series. Bernthal’s portrayal of Frank Castle stood out in the second season, capturing the character’s complexity and inner turmoil.
The Punisher is known for his ruthless methods, even more extreme than Daredevil and Kingpin’s approaches to justice and revenge.
Picking up where “Echo” left off, Kingpin seems to be on the rise, possibly becoming New York City’s mayor!

“Born Again” is part of Marvel’s Spotlight Banner, which features darker and more serious stories. Unlike most Disney+ shows, you won’t need to have seen other Marvel movies or series to understand this one.

The Punisher’s journey continues as he navigates the criminal underworld, seeking justice and redemption. His interactions with other iconic characters, including Wilson Fisk (played by Vincent D’Onofrio) and the titular Daredevil (Charlie Cox), promise to deliver gripping drama and high-stakes confrontations.

As the MCU expands its television offerings, this series introduces significant changes, including the appointment of showrunner Dario Scardapane. With Bernthal back in action, fans can anticipate a thrilling and emotionally charged continuation of the Daredevil saga.
The show is slated to premiere on Disney+ sometime in 2025. Get ready for heart-pounding action, intricate storytelling, and the return of one of Marvel’s most compelling antiheroes.
With a stellar cast and a return to the darker tone of the original series, “Daredevil: Born Again” promises to be an exciting addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
