The Punisher is coming to season two of 'Daredevil'

The Walking Dead's Jon Bernthal will be joining Marvel and Netflix's hit series Daredevil in season two, and he's playing a familiar face: Frank Castle, more popularly known as The Punisher.

Like Daredevil, The Punisher is a vigilante. But he's a little more willing to be a little more violent when it comes to getting results.
