A new Marvel chapter is on the horizon, Daredevil: Born Again , which is being shot for Disney+. The production will bring back some surprising faces from Netflix’s Defendersverse , including Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle/The Punisher. Bernthal’s return was first confirmed earlier this year. The thought of seeing him on screen again definitely pumped up the fans. A recent social media post by Bernthal’s trainer Slinka Proper adds even more hype to it by showing a video of Bernthal boxing, apparently in preparation for Born Again . You can see the Instagram video here !
It’s unbelievable how positive people have responded to this version of Frank and I can’t tell you how much it means to me because it means so much to me. It’s in my blood, it’s in my bones. So it’s not about whether we do it, it’s about doing it right and doing the version that the fans really deserve. We’ll see. (…) Frank is always there, he is always a part of me. And when we get the call, I’ll be ready and I’ll do everything in my power to make sure we do it right or we don’t do it at all.

What is Daredevil: Born Again about ?
Daredevil: Born Again will continue the final battle between Matt Murdock/Daredevil (Charlie Cox) and Wilson Fisk/Kingpin (Vincent D’Onofrio). New cast members include Sandrine Holt, Michael Gandolfini and Margarita Levieva.
(…) we will really delve into the life of lawyer Matt Murdock. If it’s done right and really gets its hands dirty with this world… I think it’s something very interesting to spend a lot of time in the everyday life of a superhero (…).
Cox said in an interview with NME last December
Daredevil: Born Again is set to release on Disney+ in Spring 2024.
