Before ‘Moon Knight’ or ‘She-Hulk: Lawyer She-Hulk’, the home of Marvel heroes was on Netflix. The star was ‘Daredevil’, which will now have its return to the universe, but one of the most popular series on the platform was ‘The Punisher’. Now, three years after it ended, actress Rosario Dawson has revealed that it is “happening again”.
Dawson revealed the news during a panel at the Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo (C2E2) this weekend. He didn’t say much to confirm anything, but Dawson is not just any source, she played Claire Temple in most of the Netflix Marvel series, including ‘Daredevil’, ‘Luke Cage’ and ‘The Defenders’, as the Netflix version of the Marvel character “night nurse”. Nevertheless, did not appear in ‘The Punisher’, and the actress acknowledged that she wants to change that and appear in the potential new series.

Dawson claimed to be looking forward to participating in what is to come in the character’s future. In addition to comment on how he found out all this was coming back to Marvel Studios:
“I hadn’t heard that announcement, but I found out yesterday that The Punisher was happening again. So, I feel like it’s my second chance, because that’s the only show I wasn’t on and I love Jon Bernthal. So let’s make it happen collectively, guys.”
Dawson dropped that the character he would return in his own project, but it is not known if as a new season of the character or a reboot, although it is most likely that he will follow the path of the characters already seen in the MCU such as ‘Daredevil’ or ‘Kingpin’, with small appearances that open their presence until they end up on their own path. We will see if there is an official confirmation next.
