Can I just say my first reaction? It's Shane Walsh from The Walking Dead. Well, Jon Bernthal. SHANE. All of The Walking Dead fans out there understand what I'm talking about. I'm interested in seeing what Jon Bernthal brings to this series. He's looking good in this trailer! I wasn't a big fan of him in The Walking Dead. Again, all of the TWD fans will understand me here. He has a type. He's always the guy that you absolutely hate. He's a jerk in TWD. He's a jerk in Fury as Pfc. Grady Travis. I want to see more from him besides just being the guy you want to punch in the face. Will this be his chance? I hope so. According to Jon Bernthal's interview with Entertainment Weekly, many people in New York feel the same way. Bernthal told Entertainment Weekly that he has been approached on the streets of New York by people telling him not to mess this up.
There is a rumor that Netflix enjoyed Bernthal's performance so much that they are developing a Punisher spin-off. It's very early in the process if it's true. Jon Bernthal had to go to a very dark place for a while for this role. I'm excited to see what happens!
So, we meet Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal), an ex-military veteran that uses an arsenal of weapons to beat crime by any means necessary. The Punisher. Then we're surprised again when Matt Murdock comes face to face with Elektra Natchios.
I really like this trailer. It's creepy. Let's just add in all of the creepy children singing! I'm very excited about seeing the new season! I wonder what we'll see in Part 2 of the official trailer. What do you guys think?
