Jon Bernthal on 'Daredevil' return, 'no-holds-barred' Punisher TV special (exclusive)

Jon Bernthal explains how his 'Daredevil: Born Again' return is his 'toe dip' before giving an 'unforgiving, no-holds-barred version of Frank' for Punisher TV special.

In addition to Daredevil: Born Again season 2, Marvel gave Bernthal the go-ahead to write and star in a standalone Punisher TV special in the vein of Werewolf by Night. So even though his big episode 4 moment only lasts a scene (at least for now), Bernthal admits, "I feel like it's opened the door to getting closer to the Frank Castle that I really, really want to portray." This combination gave way to the Frank that Bernthal wanted to deliver, which is the character he's seen resonate over the years across the comic book, military, and law enforcement communities.
