It has been confirmed that Bernthal is 100% returning as the Punisher and will appear in future Marvel Studios productions.

WGTC  who posted the news first, says that it’s unclear where he’ll show up next and how he’ll factor into things, but we’re told that one idea is to do a Midnight Sons movie, which would feature Bernthal’s Punisher amongst other Marvel heroes like Ghost Riders Danny Ketch and Johnny Blaze.

That sounds like it will be a great film.

It is also speculated that The Punisher will be making a cameo in another character’s film in Phase 5.

Again, the specifics on which exact movie/movies he’ll be in are still hazy, but our sources have assured us that whether Marvel and/or Bernthal is ready to publicly admit it or not, the actor’s definitely returning to the MCU to reprise his role as The Punisher.
