Netflix has released the trailer of the second season of Marvel’s The Punisher , and the sophomore season seems to be way darker, grittier and bloodier than the first instalment.
A Daredevil series spin-off, The Punisher revolves around Frank Castle, who uses lethal methods to fight crime as the vigilante “the Punisher”, with Jon Bernthal reprising the role from Daredevil. The last season may have indicated that Castle was heading towards a happier life, but the trailer situates him again in the midst of utter violence and vigilante battle.
In this season, Castle will be seen getting embroiled in the attempted kidnapping and murder of a young girl Amy Bendix (Giorgia Whigham). As he digs deep to uncover the mystery behind the constant attacks on the girl and the information that she bears, he is confronted with Marvel Comics villain named Jigsaw, the alter ego of Billy Russo (Ben Barnes), one who was introduced in the plot of the finale of the last season.
The Punisher is the only other Marvel show, apart from Jessica Jones that has yet not been axed from the streaming platform. Netflix pulled the plug on three of Marvel’s shows , Daredevil, Iron Fist and Luke Cage.
