Jon Bernthal on Punisher Giving Fatherly Advice to Spidey
from Nerdist in Audio
Jon Bernthal on The Punisher Giving "Fatherly Advice" to Spider-ManJon Bernthal recently opened up about the highly anticipated, incredibly unlikely dynamic between Frank Castle and Peter Parker in the upcoming street-level era of the MCU. Discussing his return as The Punisher, Bernthal revealed that Frank will step into a surprisingly paternal role for Tom Holland's isolated, grieving Spider-Man in Brand New Day. With Peter completely cut off from his former Avengers mentors and struggling to survive in a Kingpin-controlled New York, Frank offers the young hero some much-needed—albeit incredibly gritty and unorthodox—"fatherly advice." Bernthal noted that while Frank's methods are lethal, his protective instincts kick in when he sees a damaged, lonely kid trying to do the right thing. The actor teased that this dark, street-hardened mentorship will provide a fascinating and stark contrast to Peter's previous, tech-heavy dynamic with Tony Stark.Visit https://nerdist.com/article/jon-bernthal-on-punisher-giving-fatherly-advice-to-spidey/ to read or listen to the article.Powered by Instaread (https://instaread.co/player) Hosted on Acast.
