It seems that Marvel Studios wants to have the actor back, but they will start his story from scratch, so they will ignore any reference to the series produced by Netflix, including the crossovers with Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist and The Defenders.
Recall that Netflix’s The Punisher series ended after the premiere of season two and was the last Marvel series to be released by this streaming platform.
Jon Bernthal will not be the only actor to reprise his role in the MCU, as Charlie Cox, who played Daredevil in Marvel’s first Netflix series, is speculated to be filming scenes in the Spider-Man 3 movie. Also, days ago, Ryan Reynolds and Marvel Studios announced that they would collaborate on Deadpool 3.
Disney and Marvel Studios, do not want to compromise their family-oriented productions by introducing a character as violent and bloodthirsty as The Punisher, so if his story were to be adapted as a series, this production will premiere on Star, the television channel that will represent Fox.
Jon Bernthal is an American-born actor known for playing Shane Walsh on the television series The Walking Dead and Frank Castle (The Punisher) on the Daredevil series and stand-alone series.
Jon has also appeared on the big screen in multi-award-winning feature films such as The Wolf of Wall Street, Baby Driver, Fury, and The Accountant.
