Marvel's The Punisher New Trailer Breakdown: 11 Things You Need To See
9. Our First Look At Micro
Netflix
The last time we saw Micro in a live action setting was in Lexi Alexander's Punisher: War Zone, where the character was played to perfection by Seinfeld and Space Jam alum, Wayne Knight.
Now, however, the mantle falls to Ebon Moss-Bachrach, who'll be playing a decidedly beardy version of the Mike Baron/Klaus Janson creation. Here, the character looks to have plenty of reason to join Frank in his mission against his old unit, and indeed, even looks to be the one who uncovers a conspiracy in the first place, having acquired the footage to the 'Zubair Interrogation' (more on that in a second).
Later shots show Moss-Bachrach's character being cornered by a number of police cruisers, but where exactly this takes place in the chronology of the show is unclear. What we do know, however, is that Micro will be providing very much the same role he did in both War Zone and in the comics as Castle's very own 'guy in the chair'.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
