This is awesome. I loved Bernthal as Punisher. Definitely deserves his own series and I hope it is as violent as he was in season 2 of Daredevil.

After months of rumors, Netflix has officially given the green light for a The Punisherseries. Entertainment Weekly reports that Marvel has just ordered a new series starring the gun-toting vigilante first introduced in Daredevil season 2. Jon Bernthal is set to reprise the role of Frank Castle, army veteran turned anti-hero, for the show. Writer and producer Steven Lightfoot will serve as showrunner.

THE SIXTH MARVEL SERIES ON NETFLIX

The Punisher, which will follow Frank Castle's quest for bloody justice in Hell's Kitchen, will be the sixth series in Marvel's stable of Netflix shows. It joins the likes of Daredevil, the Peabody Award-winning Jessica Jones, and the upcoming Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and The Defenders on the streaming network.

The decision to launch a new series with the Punisher makes sense. Apart from bothDaredevil and Jessica Jones receiving strong reviews from critics in the last year, Bernthal's performance as Frank Castle was praised by critics for its complexity and rawness. There's no word yet on when the series will premiere, but expect Castle to make his return at some point in the next few years.

So fucking awesome to hear this news, but knew sooner rather than later The Punisher would get his own show. The Punisher was the stand out star from the Second season of Daredevil for me, and Jon Bernthal take on the character was so perfectly done. To me Jon Bernthal is The Punisher inside and out. This show is going to be so crazy, and I'm ready to ride this Roller Coaster.
