20 Most Paused TV Moments Of 2016
6. The Punisher Arrives - Daredevil
Since it wasn’t possible for Frank Grillo to play The Punisher – thanks to already being a part of the Marvel universe playing Crossbones -Jon Bernthal is a fine second choice. He absolutely nailed the part of Frank Castle during his early days, capturing the inner anger of the character, mixed with the human being buried somewhere deep inside the murderous shell.
He stole the show throughout Daredevil’s second season and got a few iconic moments like the prison riot or the courtroom scene. The season was building up to the reveal of Frank in his Punisher outfit, so when he snipes some ninjas to save Matt Murdock in the finale, fans were positively punching the air with joy when they got a proper look at the fully formed Punisher.
It was no surprise he got his own show, so let’s hope it lives up to the promise he showed here.
