New Promo Spot for THE PUNISHER Season 2 and Possible Premiere Date

Netflix has released a promo spot for Marvel’s The Punisher season two, which comes with the caption, “Back to work.” In the promo, Frank Castle is in a bar downing some booze, and in the process he decides to burn a Presidential Pardon that he’s received. Frank obviously isn’t done killing bad guys yet.

It was recently revealed that Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) is going to be embracing his vigilante side and going full on Punisher!

As for the premiere date, in a now deleted tweet from the Netflix account for the Middle East and North Africa, it was shared that the series would premiere on Friday, January 18th. If that doesn’t change, we won’t have to wait much longer before we see Frank Castle back in action!
