If there's been one constant in this universe, it's Rosario Dawson's Claire Temple. Effectively setup to become the small screen's version of Night Nurse - and now, perhaps, White Tiger - she's appeared in every series to date (including both seasons of Daredevil), putting her considerable medical skills to good use and calling heroes out on all their bulls*it.

It's a surprise, then, to hear that she won't appear in The Punisher. Of course, this one does stand a little bit apart from the others - he's not a Defender, even if a Bernthal cameo is rumoured for that series - which might help explain the absence of Temple, though it is still a shame. It's mostly due to scheduling difficulties, as Dawson explained to Collider:

"I really wanted to do a cameo on The Punisher, but it doesn’t always work that way."
