New Synopsis For THE PUNISHER Sheds Some Light On The Direction Of The Netflix Series
Marvel and Netflix have released a synopsis for The Punisher and it sheds some light on what we should expect from the highly anticipated series and how the public views Frank Castle when the show begins.
Marvel has revealed a decent amount of content for The Punisher but there's been no mention of the show's premiere date. It's still expected to hit Netflix later this year but the online streaming service is really leaving it to the last minute to let fans know when they should start getting ready for this one (and take the entire day off work to watch it). However, we do now have a brand new synopsis!
It's not particularly long but it does shed some light on what direction The Punisher will take and points to Frank Castle having become a known entity in New York City as a vigilante wiping out criminals.
In Marvel’s The Punisher, after exacting revenge on those responsible for the death of his wife and children, Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) uncovers a conspiracy that runs far deeper than New York’s criminal underworld. Now known throughout the city as The Punisher, he must discover the truth about injustices that affect more than his family alone.
Jon Bernthal was introduced as The Punisher in season two of Daredevil and while he was rumoured to appear in The Defenders, that never happened. Many fans believe Marvel dropped the ball on Frank in some respects so hopefully, the show is going to deliver a version of the character we can get behind.
