Jon Bernthal and Another Punisher Actor Unite in Epic Photos
Jon Bernthal will return as Frank Castle in Daredevil:
Jon Bernthal unites with actor Thomas Jane for epic new images featuring them in live action Punisher characters. Frank Castle. Jane first appeared as Frank Castle in the 2004 film The Punisher in which it was Frank seeking revenge on the criminal Howard Saint (John Travolta) who was responsible for causing his family’s death. Due to differences in the creative process, Jane’s portrayal in the second film as Frank Castle was revamped as Punisher: War Zone (2008) with Ray Stevenson taking the title role. Eventually, Marvel regained rights of The Punisher character prior to the time that Bernthal was introduced in the role of Frank Castle on Daredevil season 2. He then debuted his Netflix series in 2017.

Both actors were in attendance for training sessions that were tactical which they are familiar with from their roles as the role of the Punisher The scene of Bernthal as well as Jane meeting was quite exciting as well as the possibility that two Punisher actors were present simultaneously for training day videos that were released to the public is certainly fascinating.
Will Jon Bernthal’s Punisher Ever Join Thomas Jane in The MCU?
Jane hasn’t played Frank Castle since 2004’s film but he did return as Frank Castle for 2012’s The Punisher: Dirty Laundry short fan film which was produced by him as an effort to pay tribute to Frank Castle & his fans. With this level of passion in Frank Castle, as demonstrated by Jane’s short fan film and work on Dirty Laundry and due to Bernthal returning in Disney+ Daredevil: Born Again shortly after, two live-action Punisher actors might one day meet in the Marvel cinematic universe!
On first look, it appears unlikely that the two actors will be in attendance for training simultaneously in the same way that Bernthal began his training in the role of Punisher to prepare for Daredevil: Born Again. However, Jane might join Bernthal during training sessions to Punisher purpose of recasting on screen, and this is not logical for storytelling. Daredevil should instead focus on grounded adventures, not multiverse plotlines. Perhaps Jane will appear in Daredevil: Born Again as another character, or maybe connected to the entire story?

Jane and Bernthal could have met as the result of an accident, but there’s the possibility that their Punisher roles could cross paths within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Marvel is currently working on its Multiverse Saga; episodes such as Spider-Man: No Way Home and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness show how different versions of a hero interact within the MCU canon. Bernthal and Jane could potentially collide in Avengers: Secret Wars event film that features live-action characters from across its film universe.
