A video from the set of Daredevil: Born Again has surfaced, and it offers a first look at Jon Bernthal’s return as Frank Castle / The Punisher, and it also reveals a pretty big spoiler in regards to the plot. So, if you don’t want to see what The Punisher does in the video, then I suggest you don’t watch the video, or continue to read the article because I talk about what happens.
The scene in the video features a confrontation between The Punisher and the villain, Hector Ayala, aka The White Tiger.
The footage features The White Tiger walking past a mailbox when a hooded figure steps out of the shadows holding a gun and puts a bullet in the vigilante’s head. Once The White Tiger is down, the shooting puts another bullet in him.
As the killer walks away we see it’s Frank Castle / The Punisher as we get a glimpse of his skull logo under his jacket. But, we don’t get a good look at his face, so there’s a chance that it’s not The Punisher and he’s being framed for murder. It’s all left up to speculation.
The new series is reportedly inspired by the Devil’s Reign storyline, which explores the power dynamics between Kingpin and the vigilantes who stand up against him. The story revolves around the power struggle between Daredevil and Wilson Fisk, who becomes the Mayor of New York City. In this arc, Kingpin uses his newfound political influence to launch a crackdown on vigilantes, making their activities illegal. This leads to a fierce confrontation between Daredevil and Kingpin, with the latter using all his resources to hunt down and eliminate Daredevil and his allies.
