Screen Rant<\/a>,\u00a0Bernthal shared new insights into the connection and revealed that he worked with Tom Holland and\u00a0filmmaker\u00a0Destin Daniel Cretton to ensure\u00a0continuity between Spider-Man: Brand New Day and The Punisher.<\/p>\n“Around that same time, there will also be this Punisher special that’s coming out, that I think will be as high-octane Punisher as you’ve ever seen,” the actor teased.\u00a0“I think what was really important to me and to Destin and to Tom is that we believed that The Punisher could walk off of the Spider-Man set and could walk onto the special set, and I do believe that we achieved that.”<\/p>\n
Without reading too much into Bernthal’s comments, it almost sounds like he’s hinting at The Punisher Special Presentation being released on Disney+ after Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into theaters next July.<\/p>\n
However, it still seems more likely that the Disney+ tale will bridge the gap between Daredevil: Born Again and Spidey’s next solo outing. Marvel Studios hasn’t announced a release date for The Punisher, but it’s previously been reported to arrive around the same time as the Man Without Fear’s second season.<\/p>\n
Earlier this year, Bernthal shed some light on\u00a0the inspiration behind the Special Presentation he’s co-writing with Reinaldo Marcus Green.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“For the Marine Corps. and that community for helping me on this journey. Helping me write, helping me find this character;\u00a0some of the best people that we have in this country have worn that Punisher skull on their body armour when they’ve taken that unbelievable walk into danger to stand up for our country.”<\/p>\n
He added, “That’s something that I take enormously seriously, and I make the show for them; I make it with them. I just really, really want to get it right.”<\/p>\n
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings\u00a0helmer\u00a0Destin Daniel Cretton directs\u00a0Spider-Man: Brand New Day\u00a0from\u00a0a script by returning\u00a0Spider-Man\u00a0franchise writers Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers.<\/p>\n
Tom Holland plays Spider-Man in a cast that also includes Jon Bernthal (The Punisher), Mark Ruffalo (The Hulk), Zendaya (MJ), Sadie Sink, Michael Mando (The Scorpion), Tramell Tillman, Marvin Jones III (Tombstone), Jacob Batalon (Ned Leeds),\u00a0and Liza Col\u00f3n-Zayas.\u00a0Avengers: Doomsday\u00a0star Florence Pugh is expected to reprise her\u00a0Thunderbolts*\u00a0role as\u00a0Yelena Belova.<\/p>\n
Spider-Man: Brand New Day\u00a0will be released in theaters on\u00a0July 31, 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jon Bernthal made his “official” MCU debut in Daredevil: Born Again earlier this year, and the future now…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":300407,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[96,69463,2839,19799,120729,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-300406","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-entertainment","tag-jon-bernthal","tag-movies","tag-spider-man-brand-new-day","tag-the-punisher","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/300406","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=300406"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/300406\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/300407"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=300406"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=300406"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=300406"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
