The unsettling ending in the second season has left fans wondering if there’ll be more to the story. The series premiered on November 17, 2017, on Netflix and is part of the Marvel franchise. Despite Marvel being a powerhouse for superheroes movies/ TV series, The Punisher however did not meet the expectations of the audience.
Let’s find out below whether or not The Punisher will return with the third season.
Is Season 3 of The Punisher Renewed?
Unfortunately, no. The Punisher won’t be returning with the third season as Netflix officially canceled the series back in 2019.
Therefore, the third season of The Punisher will not be released as an outcome of Netflix’s verdict to withdraw its Marvel programming.
But first, let’s patiently wait for an official announcement before we speak about this.
Will The Punisher Season 3 be Released on Disney+?
It’s not determined yet however, chances are high for The Punisher to premiere on Disney+ very soon! Fans can expect the third season to arrive towards the end of 2022 or sometime in 2023.
The showrunners have talked about a possible season 3 of The Punisher since 2017 and it looks like it’s finally going to happen. The other important information is, The Punisher season 3 will have a different title and will be called “The Third Season.”
The Cast of The Punisher season 3: Who Might Return?
If the series returns on Disney+, it’s expected that the major characters will return in the third season accompanied by a handful of the supporting characters.
From the major cast, we hope to see–
- Amber Rose Revah in the role of Dinah Madani
- Jason R Moore will return as Frank Castle / The Punisher
Other supporting characters who might probably return are–
- Josh Stewart in the role of John Pilgrim
- Giorgia Whigham will likely return as Amy Bendix
- Floriana Lima might be back as Krista Dumont
- Ebon Moss-Bachrach might reprise his role as David Lieberman / Micro
- Jaime Ray Newman will likely return as Sarah Lieberman
The Punisher Season 3 Plot: Expectations
There’s a lot to unravel if a third season returns since the previous season left the story incomplete, so it’s plausible that the story would continue from where it was left off. As of now, it’s not known how the storyline will unfold in the third season because the showrunners have not provided any update about it.
Why Did Netflix Cancel The Punisher Series?
The reason why Netflix canceled the series was due to their agreement to break off their partnership with Marvel. Nonetheless, Netflix has not yet offered any official statement regarding the cancellation of season 3 of The Punisher, but there are a lot of rumors circulating about this matter and until it’s been officially confirmed we can not just assume things.
Where To Watch Marvel’s The Punisher Series?
Right now you can watch seasons 1 & 2 of The Punisher on Netflix or Disney+.
