“Punisher: One Last Kill Special Arrives Post-Daredevil Finale”
Jon Bernthal will headline a dedicated Punisher presentation scheduled for May 12. The special arrives one week after the Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 finale on May 5. Filmogaz.com confirms the release window aligns with the end of the Marvel series run.
Release timing and episode schedule
Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 premieres on Tuesday. The season spans eight episodes with weekly releases. Episodes 2 and 3 both debut on March 31.
The Punisher special, titled One Last Kill, arrives on May 12. That date places it post-Daredevil finale. Marvel will treat the project as a Special Presentation.
Bernthal’s history as Frank Castle
Bernthal first played Frank Castle on Netflix. His role appeared in Daredevil Season 2 in 2016. He later led the Punisher series for two seasons, from 2017 to 2019.
Castle is a military veteran driven by vengeance after his family’s massacre. The character proved popular enough to earn a standalone show.
Return to the MCU
Street-level heroes from the Netflix era have returned to the MCU. Charlie Cox’s Daredevil reappeared in several Marvel projects. Cox was in Spider-Man: No Way Home, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, and Echo.
In the Disney+ revival, Daredevil: Born Again, Cox and Bernthal reunited. They teamed up against a corrupt New York mayor, Wilson Fisk. Vincent D’Onofrio plays Fisk, also known as the Kingpin.
Future appearances and crossovers
Bernthal will not stop with the special. He also appears in Spider-Man: Brand New Day opposite Tom Holland. The film will bring back other MCU players too.
- Mark Ruffalo returns as the Hulk.
- Michael Mando’s Scorpion is expected to reappear.
Series impact and renewal
Daredevil: Born Again earned strong attention after its first season. Disney+ has renewed the show through Season 3. The series was noted as the first M-rated Marvel television entry.
The Punisher special aims to build on that momentum. Fans can expect a focused, darker outing for Frank Castle. Filmogaz.com will follow developments and release details.
