There’s no doubt that Disney Plus has been a good thing for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Without it, we wouldn’t have Wandavision, Moon Knight and a whole host of other incredible shows. That being said, the formation of Disney Plus did mark the end of the Marvel Netflix era which still makes me sad from time to time. It’s not all doom and gloom. Charlie Cox’s Daredevil has been rebooted in the MCU, but our other favourite Marvel Netflix heroes remain lost to the void… for now. Another could also be returning.
You can catch Daredevil in She-Hulk: Attorney At Law. Check out the trailer below.
Rumours suggest that Jon Bernthal’s The Punisher / Frank Castle will return alongside Daredevil in Daredevil Born Again, the upcoming Disney Plus series. This is according to podcaster Tom Smith and industry insider KC Walsh who correctly leaked facts about No Way Home (thanks for spotting, Dexerto). Smith tweeted: “Basically Born Again is re-introducing the Netflix characters to the mainstream and they planned to bring in [Krysten] Ritter but there’s a scheduling problem for Born Again. So they needed another Netflix star to fill the role. It’s Jon Bernthal. Wouldn’t be shocked if Ritter cameos [though].”
You may recall last month, actress Rosario Dawson seemingly confirmed The Punisher’s return before walking the claim back. She put the spill down to “iffy” intel but this could, of course, be a cover story.

As always, do take this with a pinch of salt until anything is confirmed but it makes sense given the reception to Cox’s Daredevil. Seeing as The Punisher is my favourite TV series, I would class this as a major personal win. Please Marvel, let it be true.
