Shooting wrapped on the Daredevil: Born Again follow-up last year, but as with most Disney+ titles, it&#8217;s not really getting much advance promotion.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully, there&#8217;s something in the Man Without Fear&#8217;s second season that tees up the Special. Of course, we&#8217;ve heard conflicting reports about whether Jon Bernthal will make an appearance there after last being seen breaking out of The Kingpin&#8217;s makeshift prison (at the very least, we&#8217;re hoping for a post-credits scene).<\/p>\n<p>Very little is known about Marvel Television&#8217;s plans for Frank Castle in the Special, but set photos have pointed to The Punisher taking on Ma Gnucci&#8217;s crime family.<\/p>\n<p>Now, fans are convinced that a familiar face from Frank&#8217;s past will return after a recent social media post.\u00a0Amber Rose Revah played\u00a0Agent Dinah Madani, a CIA agent and former Homeland Security agent, in 26 episodes of The Punisher.<\/p>\n<p>Is she hinting\u00a0at her MCU return? It certainly seems that way, and The Punisher Special Presentation seems a likely place for a comeback&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>As a reminder,\u00a0Madani\u00a0investigated a conspiracy tied to the deal of Frank Castle&#8217;s family. She was shot in the head by Billy Russo, but survived her injury, and later became obsessed with making him pay for what he&#8217;d done.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The last time we saw her, she&#8217;d\u00a0left Homeland Security and joined the CIA so that she could continue her work protecting the country. Frank could always do with another ally, though\u00a0Madani may have\u00a0since signed up with\u00a0the Department of Damage Control.<\/p>\n<p>In related news,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/comicbook.com\/tv-shows\/news\/punisher-star-addresses-potential-mcu-return-reveals-a-scene-that-was-cut\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ComicBook<\/a>\u00a0spoke with The Punisher Season 2 star\u00a0Georgia Whigham, who played Amy in the show. Asked if she feels that there&#8217;s still more story to tell with the young woman whom Frank set out to protect, the Ted star replied, &#8220;Oh my God. If she had a place in that world. I don\u2019t know where it would be specifically. She was such a fighter. Amy was so inherently scrappy and clever.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There is a spot for her in the superhero zeitgeist, but I don\u2019t know what it would be specifically,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;There\u2019s a scene that got cut. You probably don\u2019t remember, but I wanted to be a deep-sea diver. They cut a scene of me diving for a gold bar at a swim school. There\u2019s also this side of, &#8216;You know what? I am done with that life. I am going to go dive.&#8217;\u00a0I don\u2019t know why they cut it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Punisher Special Presentation\u00a0is eyeing a Summer 2026 premiere on Disney+.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Punisher Special Presentation is expected to hit streaming before Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into theaters this&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":335818,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[93,61,60,270,51615],"class_list":["post-335817","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-movies","tag-the-punisher"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/335817","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=335817"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/335817\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/335818"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=335817"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=335817"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=335817"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
