Marvel fans simply could not stop talking about the new photos of Jon Bernthal, who appears to be shooting for "The Punisher" solo series (via Twitter). The pictures show the "Daredevil" Season 2 actor looking sullen with a scruffy beard, hinting on the possibility that the character has gone through a lot since his encounter with Matt Murdock. There are speculations that the show will set the tone for "The Defenders", which is set for a 2017 release. But will Bernthal's series also affect "Jessica Jones" Season 2?
