Though we still don't have anything close to official confirmation, the signs are pointing to Marvel Studios reintroducing at least some of the characters from the now cancelled Netflix Marvel shows, and keeping the original actors on to play them.
Charlie Cox is expected to return as Matt Murdock/Daredevil for Spider-Man 3 (as well as the Disney+ She-Hulk series), and there's been talk of Krysten Ritter stepping back into the role of Jessica Jones now that Marvel has regained the rights.
What about Jon Bernthal's take on The Punisher?
A rumor recently did the rounds that Bernthal is expected to arm-up as Frank Castle for some kind of MCU reboot, and while that seems like a long-shot, Boss Logic has now shared an impressive poster for a potential Disney+ series based around the exploits of the ultra-violent vigilante. The crosshairs on the logo are a particularly nice touch!
Bernthal has previously hinted that we may not have seen the last of The Punisher, and to say his interpretation of Frank Castle was popular with fans would be an understatement. Such a brutal character wouldn't necessarily seem like a good fit for the family-friendly MCU - especially not as a Disney+ series - but we know that Deadpool 3 will be R-rated, so the studio is clearly planning to expand into uncharted waters at some point in the near future.
Do you think we'll see Bernthal back in the saddle as The Punisher?
