What is Punisher"s Role in Daredevil: Born Again?After fans questioned for a long time whether Bernthal would even reprise his role as the Punisher at all, the veteran Marvel star is now rumored to play a notable role in
Daredevil: Born Again alongside Charlie Cox and Vincent D"Onofrio.
A copyright listing for the new series went so far as to list him second in
Born Again"s credits only behind Cox, suggesting he is firmly part of the core cast of characters involved in this story.
Fortunately, Bernthal is more than prepared for his first Punisher action in more than half a decade, as he showed fans a video of himself returning to weapons training in Southern California once he was confirmed to reprise the role.
Fans have also gotten a look at costumes from other major players in this
Daredevil revival, and with Bernthal involved, anticipation to see him fully suited up again only rises with each passing day of production.
Daredevil: Born Again is currently filming, and while the series does not have an official release window, it"s expected to premiere in 2025.
