Netflix has set the release date for the second — and likely final — season of The Punisher:
NEW YEAR, NEW FRANK?
MARVEL’S THE PUNISHER SEASON 2 LAUNCHES GLOBALLY JANUARY 18, 2019
Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) can run but he can’t hide from who he’s meant to be. Season two finds Frank in all too familiar territory. With Castle’s former brother-in-arms Billy Russo (Ben Barnes) slowly beginning to heal from the traumatic brain injury Frank inflicted on him, it’s only a matter of time before Billy starts to put the pieces of the puzzle back together.
Former marine-turned-vigilante Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) has been living a quiet life on the road until he suddenly becomes embroiled in the attempted murder of a young girl (Giorgia Whigham). As he is drawn into the mystery surrounding her and those in pursuit of the information she holds, Castle attracts a new target on his back as new and old enemies force him to confront whether he should accept his destiny and embrace a life as The Punisher.
Steve Lightfoot (Hannibal) serves as showrunner, writer and executive producer. The cast also features Ben Barnes (Billy Russo), Amber Rose Revah (Dinah Madani), Jason R. Moore (Curtis Hoyle), Josh Stewart (John Pilgrim), and Floriana Lima (Dr. Krista Dumont).
With The Punisher expected to follow Luke Cage, Iron Fist and Daredevil into Netflix’s cancellation graveyard, fans will hope Season 2 provides satisfying closure to the soon-axed series.
Are you still hopeful for The Punisher Season 3, or have you already comes to terms with the show’s imminent demise on Netflix? Hoping it manifests on Disney’s upcoming streaming service? Stay tuned…
