“Watch Jon Bernthal Ignite in Marvel’s Violent ‘Punisher: One Last Kill’ Trailer”
The first footage for the new Punisher special landed with a shock. Disney+ will stream the project on May 12, a week after the Season 2 finale of Daredevil: Born Again.
What the trailer shows
The trailer is brutal and disorienting. It shows Jon Bernthal set ablaze and hearing voices in unsettling hallucinations.
Scenes suggest Frank Castle is back on a bloody revenge mission. The footage emphasizes violent confrontations and personal torment.
Creative team and credits
Reinaldo Marcus Green directs the special. He also co-wrote the script with Jon Bernthal.
