Marvel's The Punisher Trailer Breakdown: 8 Things You Need To See
3. Frank Betrayed By Rawlins
Netflix
This brief shot of Castle being restrained by his fellow soldiers is an interesting one, to say the least. It looks like he's just returned from the field and, for whatever reason, has decided to take out his frustration on the aforementioned one-eyed fella from before.
Indeed, the trailer focused a great deal on Frank's days in the military, so we can only expect that Rawlins will feature in both the past and the present, as the series looks to fully develop and explore Castle's history before following on from where Daredevil left off.
It's also unclear whether or not Rawlins still has his eye in this shot. The trailer seemed to follow a kind of linear structure, but, in this case, it would appear that this event takes place before the torture scene.
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.
