Marvel.com announced today that Jon Bernthal (“The Walking Dead,” “Wolf of Wall Street”) will be playing Frank Castle, who you may know as The Punisher, in “Daredevil” Season 2, slated to release on Netflix in 2016.
“Jon Bernthal brings an unmatched intensity to every role he takes on, with a potent blend of power, motivation and vulnerability that will connect with audiences,” said Jeph Loeb, Marvel’s Head of Television. “Castle’s appearance will bring dramatic changes to the world of Matt Murdock and nothing will be the same.”
If “Daredevil” isn’t your favorite Netflix Original to date, this should do nothing but send it up the ladder for you. Hell’s Kitchen is going to be a lot messier next season.
