Bernthal on Punisher's Return: "Just a Toe Dip" and Teases "No-Holds-Barred" Special
Jon Bernthal is back as Frank Castle and he is not holding back. In a recent interview Bernthal described his appearance in episode four as "just a toe dip". He said they wanted to test the waters and see if there was a real hunger to let Frank be truly Frank – dark complex and unflinching. It sounds like the answer was a resounding YES.
Bernthal hinted that this is just the beginning. He teased that his return is opening the door to getting closer to the Punisher he has always wanted to portray. Even more exciting? Marvel greenlit a standalone Punisher TV special written by and starring Bernthal himself. He described it as a "no-holds-barred" version of Frank Castle that will be visceral psychologically complex and unforgiving. Get ready for a Punisher story that does not pull any punches.
