If you were hoping The Punisher arrived guns-blazing, head-banging and Bernthal-brooding, today’s your day. Marvel’s Netflix spinoff released an action-packed first full trailer, raiding the music library once more to the sweet sounds of Metallica.
We knew Marvel’s Netflix Punisher would have to distinguish itself from the dimly-lit Defenders, but who knew that meant body-cams and broad daylight murder? Frank Castle is a woodland killer in the latest teaser for the Daredevil spinoff.
If you thought three new Marvel series in one year was a lot take in, Netflix sure isn’t going to make The Punisher easy on you. Get a look at the full cast with new photos from the forthcoming spinoff, but are we any closer to a premiere date? The suspense (and bullets) are killing me!
Netflix’s scramble to cut some kind of deal with Disney after the company announced their own Disney-exclusive streaming service last month seems to have come to naught, as CEO Bob Iger announced that Marvel and Star Wars movies would also be among the films appearing exclusively on the new app Disney hopes to launch by 2019. Better get those Moana viewings in fast, folks.
The Defenders have had their fun, and The Punisher is taking the spotlight by force. See for yourself with yet another teaser for the Daredevil spinoff, as we meet Frank’s friends and allies and “fall in.”
I’d like to think I’m not prone to hyperbole, so believe me when I say I’m putting all my remaining Marvel eggs in the Thor: Ragnarok basket. Sure, I’ve more-or-less enjoyed most of the movies in the franchise — this year’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, for example, might be one of their best yet — but superhero movies are like anything else: the more you ingest, the less you enjoy it the next time around. If Marvel is going to continue making these movies until the sun explodes, then I’m ready for things to get a little bit weird, and Thor: Ragnarok director Taika Waititi is the right person to deliver.
The Defenders had their day, and only The Punisher remains on Marvel’s 2017 Netflix slate. We’ve seen one teaser, so catch a brand-new photo and synopsis for Frank Castle’s continuing adventures, as Marvel plays coy with the premiere.

It’s officially Defenders week at Netflix, but there’s plenty of time for one last trailer. Watch Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist get into all-out action with a new trailer for the Friday premiere, while two new clips pair some odd friends and the “Daughters of the Dragon.”
July 24, 2017 The never ending battle between Marvel and DC continues. On Saturday, both groups released trailers for their next movies.
Stan Lee may not make physical cameos in Marvel’s Netflix Defenders series, but his influence is felt all the same. See the man himself narrate a new teaser for the big team-up, in the process revealing our first look at The Punisher.
