If they take more bits from the Punisher MAX series, sure. Beranthal is alright, never seemed like anything special in TWD and his movie roles were so minor I couldn't really be bothered to get a feel for the guy. Wait and see, especially with the source material they'll be pulling from.
 
Duuuuude. Dat Marvel casting. So damn perfect.

I see they're running with my theory of how Punisher should be introduced in to MCU (as a supporting role in the Netflix shows).
 
So does that mean the Penske truck driver in Captain America: The Winter Soldier really was the Punisher, like the Russo bros said?

he was pretty good in Fury
 
Punisher is also almost impossible to fuck up the costume. its just a fucking black shirt with a skull on it :p
 
I think he'll be better than Tom Jane

Cool casting

Final scenes in daredevil were so crap, it's like it became a completely different series in that last episode lol, just complete cheese as soon as he got that outfit (and it wasn't entirely the fault of the ugly design either, the tone just changed so much too)

I still haven't gotten around to that one. I'll pick it up tomorrow while I'm running errands.

I just really want to see this whole arc on screen:

Jason Aaron's Punisher MAX run was astounding.
 
Wow. That's great casting and truth be told I'm a little surprised that Marvel got him for this.

In saying that I'm not sure what a 'Disney Punisher' would even look like given that the gun toting ultra violence that defined the character almost certainly won't be on display here.

You know how I can tell you haven't watched Netflix's Daredevil yet?.........
 
anyone have any idea what month the second season will start? Good job John start reading and getting in character I can not fucking wait, time to binge watch season 1 tonight again
 
would be shocked if this didnt lead into a 2017 Punisher show

unless they kill him off lol
