While talking to The Hollywood Reporter about an episode of Fargo she captained and the fact that she often directs North American shows while they're filming overseas, Irish director Debrbhla Walsh was asked whether Fargo marked the first time that she actually traveled to the United States to direct an American show. Walsh replied it actually wasn't, as she previously directed an episode of Marvel's Punisher, which stars Jon Bernthal.
"One other time that hasn't been aired yet, which was an episode for the new Marvel series The Punisher, which I did just before Christmas, but it's not airing until November. I directed that in New York and edited in L.A., but this was my first directing experience in lovely Canada."
It seems Walsh has let slip that the series won't debut until November, three months after The Defenders miniseries drops on the streaming platform. However, do you think Frank Castle will turn up sooner to assist The Defenders? It seems as if nearly every other supporting character from the other Netflix superhero dramas are playing a role of some sort. We'll have to wait until August 18, 2017 to find out.
