Actor Jon Bernthal just made his big return to the MCU as Frank Castle/the Punisher in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Daredevil: Born Again season one. And much like the Punisher has strong connections to Spider-Man in comics, Bernthal has strong connections to MCU Spider-Man actor Tom Hol♏land, with whom he's currently filming The Odyssey with Christopher Nolan.
Bernthal tells that he and Holland helped each other rehear♊se for their auditions as Punisher and Spider-Man, respectively, before either one of them was ever cast in the MCU.
"He knew, he knew. I mean, he knew. He knew," Bernthal gushes about Holland when asked if he had any idea wheth𝐆er Holland would be cast as Spider-Man. "I'm working with him right now, and he's the best. He is the best. He had such drive for, you knℱow, a young kid."
"He was like. 'I'm gonna get this.' I was like, 'I dunno, a lot of people probably want it buddy'," ⛎Bernthal laughs. "We actually were in a very tiny town in Ireland, filming this movie on the west coast of Ireland, and he re🌱ad with me for Punisher, and I read with him for Spider-Man, and we both got cast. But yeah, he was wonderful."
The movie in question was 2017's Pilgrimage, a Medieval action film set during the time of the Noꦛrman invasions of Ireland.
Technically, Spider-Man and Punisher have yet to crossover in the MCU, either in a show or a movie, though Daredevil: Born Again season ꦍone included mentions of♊ both Punisher and Spider-Man from Wilson Fisk, finally connecting them.
Bernthal will reprise his 🐟role as the Punisher in a Marvel Special Presentation streaming special co-written by the actor himself, while Holland will return as Peter Parker in the recently announced 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Spider-Man: Brand New Day. And of course, with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Doomsday and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Secret Wars on the horizon, there's definitely still a chance they could cross paths in th🦹e MCU.
All episodes of Daredevil: Born Again season 1 are streaming now on 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Disney Plus. Next up for the MCU is 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Thunderbolts*, which arrives in UK cinemas on May 1 and US theaters on May 2.
