Netflix’s The Punisher is coming to the streaming service later this year, starring Jon Bernthal in the title role reprising his role from Daredevil. The latest Marvel/Netflix team-up focuses not on the traditional hero, but on an anti-hero with a serious axe to grind. In a new teaser, we see via simulated found footage that this brooding justice-seeker isn’t afraid to shed some blood.

This is easily one of the most-anticipated shows of the year for people who follow the Marvel franchise and Netflix’s originals; Bernthal is pitch-perfect casting, and looks like he could be the definitive actor to play this role, which has spawned a number of previous Hollywood adaptations to mostly middling success.
