Jon Bernthal Begins Training For DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN Return - Is This His New Punisher Look?

A video of Jon Bernthal doing some training ahead of his return as Frank Castle in Daredevil: Born Again has been shared online, and may give us some idea of how he'll look as The Punisher...

After months of rumors, we recently got confirmation that Jon Bernthal would reprise the role of Frank Castle, aka The Punisher, for the upcoming Disney+ Daredevil: Born Again series.

The show has actually been filming for a while at this stage, but we've yet to catch a glimpse of Bernthal on set. Now, we know why.

Boxer/rapper Slink Proper shared a video of himself training with The Walking Dead alum ahead of his long-awaited return, and the actor is sporting a more hirsute appearance than usual.

Castle has rocked longer hair and a beard in the comics, so could this be Bernthal's look for the show?  If he's going to be filming soon, it's a strong possibility. Of course, it only takes a quick trip to the barber to before stepping in front of the camera to completely alter his style!

We also have a photo of Bernthal alongside Thomas Jane, who played a big-screen take on The Punisher in the 2004 movie.

Would totally love to see Bernthal meet Winstone and Jane in Secret Wars.

I LOVED Jane‘s take but Bernthal totally won this for me

@Blergh - War Journal was so over the top. I was surprised how much I liked it.... all 3 of those punishers you mention have important aspects of the character.... individually all kinda weak....... I'd say I like TJ best

I hope all the hero/villain characters get the type of power upgrade that DD was given in she-hulk. His action scenes were great

@ProfessorWhy - with hiw Kingpin was displayed, I'm going to guess that's exactly what they're doing

@ProfessorWhy - Castle has no “powers,” so to speak.

ProfessorWhy - 4/2/2023, 8:10 AM
@RolandD - yeah. He's still needs to be portrayed as a super hero if he's going to be pitted against super powers. It's Batman logic

Tetiana Gaidar can sure punish me.

Uh...

I mean... multiverse Punisher? Rather see the cosmic Ghost Rider variant (maybe that version could be played by Jane). Seeing Jane and Bernthal interact could be fun

Thomas Jane was easily the best punisher. Bernthal no offense comes off to me as a try hard since he's always yelling and his exaggerated gait. Tom Jane was a silent killer.

Watch Dirty Laundry on YouTube with Thomas Jane, it's really good.

Beards are so 2010s and should have been left there along with burgundy coloured jeans.
RIP beards.

Greasy looking slickback for Punisher.

Gonna guess he still needs to get his haircut, especially if they're filming him still training like this (though he will be training the entire time, I'm assuming). Or they'll slick it back. But I'm guessing a cut either way.

Thomas Jane needs an MCU role.

He would have been a good Wolverine actually if he was younger.

Love Bernthal's take on The Punisher. When it comes to just the Punisher we had on the big screen, Thomas Jane's Punisher and movie is easily my favorite!

Will they let him wear the Punisher skull? A lot of bad cops and white supremacists sort of co-opted it, which forced Marvel to alter the Punisher symbol in the comics.

@99OPTIMISTPRIME - If you're talking about the Aaron run, the skull is shown in every issue. They hid it because the chudtubers would react accordingly, pumping ragebait as per their cottage industry, which just boosts mentions. These nitwits you see on these comment sections getting pissy don't ever bother actually READING the material, they just incessantly complain because it gives their life meaning and a sense of belonging lol.

@99OPTIMISTPRIME - Was just reading a leak that says in DD Born Again Punisher addresses some bad cops using his skull and "takes matters in his own hands".

@Fogs - I am so going to love that if it is true.
