Jon Bernthal's MCU return as The Punisher can confirm a decade-long Captain America: The Winter Soldier theory proposed by co-director Joe Russo.

Jon Bernthal's return as The Punisher in the MCU's Daredevil: Born Again could answer whether a Captain America: The Winter Soldier theory involving Frank Castle was always true or not. The Multiverse Saga has been incorporating actors from previous Marvel franchises into the MCU.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Netflix's Defenders characters had vague connections to the MCU since the beginning, but it's only now that Marvel Studios is confirming their canon status. The MCU's version of Netflix characters such as Daredevil, Wilson Fisk, and The Punisher may be slightly different, but within MCU canon, they have always existed in universe 616 without the need for multiversal explanations.

The MCU hadn't been able to confirm this theory, given that the Punisher could only appear in Netflix shows up until recently. But now that Jon Bernthal is set to reprise his famous Marvel role in the MCU, Daredevil: Born Again can now provide a definitive answer. Fortunately, the possibility has been left open ever since Joe Russo suggested it, so Marvel Studios is free to address it at any moment.

Why Would The Punisher Help Captain America And Nick Fury Netflix's Daredevil and The Punisher never revealed any possible connection between Frank Castle and Nick Fury or SHIELD. However, Jon Bernthal's Netflix Punisher was already active as an anti-hero around the time Captain America: The Winter Soldier is set in, and the tragic event that turned him into a ruthless vigilante was recent enough to motivate him to kill any criminal he came across.
