The Punisher drops by for a visit in new Daredevil Season 2 teaser

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang


The follow-up to Netflix's wildly successful first season of Daredevil is drawing near, and to celebrate, the streaming service has released a tantalising new teaser.



The new footage, which begins at around a minute and a half into the clip, sees the return of many familiar faces, as well as a few new ones. Of special interest to comics fans will be the snatched glimpses of Elektra (Elodie Yung) gearing up for war, and Jon Bernthal's Punisher, the back of whose head we get a good look at. Speaking of Frank Castle, there's another cool moment early on in the tease showing an x-ray that bears an uncanny resemblance to the Punisher's iconic skull motif.

Despite the switch in showrunners, from the looks of this footage, the second season of Daredevil is shaping up nicely. It'll interesting to see how the creative team handle Matt Murdock's transformation from shadowy vigilante into full-time superhero, as well as the absence of the Kingpin. Presumably, Punisher and Elektra will be sharing villain duties early on, with an unknown-as-yet party stepping in to make Matt Murdock's life even more miserable later on.

Expect the new series to go live sometime next April. In the meantime, Marvel fans can check in on Daredevil's fellow Defender Jessica Jones when her series releases on November 20.
