Netflix has released the first full-length trailer forThe Punisherseason 2, which seesJon Bernthalreprising the role of hyper-violent vigilante Frank Castle. Ben Barnes will return as Billy Russo, as willDaredevilstarDeborah Ann Wollas Karen Page. Criminal Minds actor Josh Stewart joins the cast as John Pilgrim, a new alt-right, Christian Fundamentalist villain.
As far as this trailer goes, it’s fine, I guess. I’ve never really been on board withThe Punisher(outside of the delightfully bonkersPunisher: War Zone), so I didn’t really bother with Season 1. I thought Bernthal was solid in Season 2 ofDaredevil, but judging by this trailer, it’s just a lot of violence, which I suppose is what people want out of aPunishershow.
Check out the trailer below.The Punisherseason 2—which also starsAmber Rose Revah,Jason R. Moore,Floriana Lima, andGiorgia Whigham—hits Netflix on January 18.
