Your Complete Guide To Every Marvel TV Show Currently In The Works

Have you noticed that there are currently a whole lot of superhero TV shows around? Well, of course you have - you seemingly can't get away from capes and cowls on the small screen at the moment. It's a fairly even split between Marvel and DC for TV dominance, too - e.g. DC have The CW's Arrowverse while Marvel have their Netflix shows - but it looks like the House of Ideas will leave their Distinguished Competition far behind in the dust very soon.

The Punisher

The-Punisher

Release info: 2017, Netflix

Cast: Jon Bernthal reprises his Daredevil role as Frank Castle/The Punisher in his own show. Ebon Moss-Bachrach joins him as his sidekick Micro while Ben Barnes will play his nemesis, Billy Russo/Jigsaw. Deborah Ann Woll will also turn up as Karen Page.

Crew: Steve Lightfoot will helm The Punisher as showrunner. Lightfoot has worked on various TV series in both the UK and the US. Most notably, he was an exec producer and writer on Bryan Fuller’s acclaimed Hannibal. 

What to expect: After Castle finally gained his skull-marked vest at the tail-end of Daredevil season 2, we expect that his solo series will see him much closer to the Punisher of the comics, including introducing familiar characters such as Micro and Jigsaw.

Why you should be excited: Bernthal practically stole the show in Daredevil season 2 and was by far the best of the four on-screen iterations of the character we’ve seen so far. To have him lead his own series should be a real ultra-violent treat.
