The Punisher, Disney+ was announced by Disney, Marvel Studio’s parent company in April last year. When the news was made official, Netflix – who at that time occupied the Marvel series’ streaming rights, revoked all of it in February 2019. The reason being that all these Marvel series were to be transferred to Disney+.
The Punisher
However, few Marvel franchises aren’t keeping well with Disney’s famous family-intended nature including The Punisher. He is an exceptionally brutal vigilante and as suggested by the name acts as a jury, judge, and executioner.
“Because the Punisher is such a violent character,” he wrote, “toning him down for Disney+ wouldn’t work; Disney is quite aware of this, and there are no plans for his show to continue on that streaming channel.

Mickey Sutton (Geekosity: All Things Pop Culture), revealed that actor Jon Bernthal might return to play the violent vigilante. As Marvel Studios are planning to bring Jon Bernthal back on Disney+.
Mickey Sutton regarding Bernthal’s return said, “Because the Punisher is such a violent character. Toning him down for Disney+ wouldn’t work; Disney is quite aware of this, and there are no plans for his show to continue that streaming channel.
He continued, “There has been chatter about either FX or Hulu for the Punisher to hunt and kill criminals, free from censorship. Regardless of which of the two he ends up; details have begun to emerge on where his future stands.”
“First of all, Marvel Studios intends to bring back Bernthal,” Sutton declared online. “However, it doesn’t mean the new series will follow the continuity of the Netflix program especially when the multiverse can now explain it away. Or it can they will simply not refer to it (sic).”
However, these are just based on rumors. But even if there is some thought of bringing Jon Bernthal back, it would be exciting to see him, the superhero, and his violence.
