Ahsoka star Rosario Dawson, who played Claire Temple on Marvel TV's Netflix shows, reveals that The Punisher is getting revived in the MCU with Jon Bernthal returning to the title role. Prior to Disney+ producing original shows from the MCU by Marvel Studios, there was the original Marvel TV era. Marvel TV, which was its own division, was the home for major MCU-adjacent shows likeAgents of SHIELD, Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, The Defenders, Runaways, and many more.
One of the popular Marvel TV dramas was The Punisher, which starred Jon Bernthal as the titular vigilante Frank Castle. Bernthal's character got his TV start on Daredevil in season 2 as one of the new crucial players of the Marvel drama. His depiction of The Punisher was so beloved that it got him his own spinoff series not long after, which followed Frank tackling the issues that led to him living his current life of vigilantism. However, like most of the Marvel-Netflix dramas, The Punisher had a short run as it was cancelled after Punisher season 2.
