The Punisher

Marvel's The Punisher, or simply The Punisher is an American crime-drama series created by Steve Lightfoot. The series is set within the "Marvel Cinematic Universe" and shares continuity with the movies. The series is a spin-off from Daredevil — one of the many numerous shows distributed by Netflix in partnership with Marvel. It was released on November 17, 2017.

The series follows Frank Castle and his bid to fight crime under the vigilante alias "The Punisher".

A Punisher-themed television series received a pilot commitment from Fox in 2011, but the project was canceled. Before the second season of Daredevil aired, development on a spin-off named The Punisher began in January 2016. Netflix ordered the series in April 2016, confirming Bernthal's involvement and naming Lightfoot as executive producer and showrunner.

On December 12, 2017, it was announced that Netflix renewed the series for a second season. It was released on January 18, 2019. Exactly a month after the release of its second season Netflix cancelled the series after two seasons.
