Now that The Defenders has finally brought together the titular superheroes from Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist, fans are started to get pumped up for the debut of The Punisher solo series following the character’s blistering debut in Daredevil season 2.
The Punisher star Jon Bernthal says the upcoming series will have very few connections to Marvel Netflix shows that preceded it.
In other words: The Punisher’s story will feature zero ninjas, zero members of the Hand, and definitely zero dragons.”
And while The Punisher was a key character in the second season of Daredevil, Bernthal has just dropped the surprising revelation that the show won’t necessarily be part of the connective tissue that holds The Defenders together, but rather is off doing his own thing.
