Marvel's THE PUNISHER Has Officially Been Renewed For A Second Season
Well, that was quick. Just over a month after its debut, Netflix have just announced that Marvel's The Punisher, which stars Jon Bernthal, has officially been renewed for a second season. Come take a look!
"One batch. Two batch. Penny and dime."
Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) is officially back in business as Netflix has formally announced the renewal of Marvel's The Punisher for a second season, set to premiere at an still-to-be determined date.
Following pretty solid reviews, The Punisher debuted on November 17 and followed the anti-hero as he embarked on a pretty intense journey, with some much-neede backup from Micro (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), to uncover a major conspiracy that would finally bring justice to those that wronged him and his family.
Plot details remain under wraps, but back in November, showrunner Steve Lightfoot, when asked about a potential second season, did tease, to Entertainment Weekly, that Castle will have a new war to fight and hinted that we might see Billy Russo (Ben Barnes) again as well. “In the event of a season 2, which I desperately want to do, we will very quickly find him a new war to fight. I think we left both Frank and Billy in places where there are so many ways to jump off from if that second season comes. We can do anything with them, in truth.”
Check out the announcement below:
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.
