Jon <\/strong>Bernthal<\/strong>‘slatest photo\u00a0has our attention as we wait for the upcoming\u00a0Daredevil: Born Again\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Spider-Man: Brand New Day\u00a0<\/em>films. Both projects have release dates in 2026.<\/p>\n Bernthal plays the iconic role of The Punisher in both the series and the film, so Marvel fans will see a lot of him next year.<\/p>\n For now, the 49-year-old actor is showing everyone just how hard he’s working to stay in shape for his big role in a photo that has fans full of praise. In it, Bernthal is shirtless and flexing to show off his muscular physique. In the caption, he simply wrote, “Back. At. It.”<\/p>\n \ud83c\udfacSIGN UP for Parade’s Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox<\/strong><\/a>\ud83c\udfac<\/p>\n It didn’t take long for the comments section of Bernthal’s latest Instagram photo to fill up as many piled on the praise.<\/p>\n “This guy looks like he takes ZERO naps,” one commenter wrote.<\/p>\n Another chimed in, “Don’t do it, Frank!” This is referencing a line from Season 2 of\u00a0The Punisher\u00a0<\/em>in which Karen Page says this to Frank Castle,\u00a0also known as The Punisher. This comment is even more fun because it came from Jason R. Moore,<\/strong> who played Curtis Hoyle in The Punisher <\/em>television series.<\/p>\n “Who\u2019s getting punished?” someone else asked.<\/p>\n The bulk of Bernthal’s comments section was filled with GIFs that mostly featured him in various roles over the years. Others featured Andrew Lincoln<\/strong>, who played his friend turned killer Rick Grimes from The Walking Dead <\/em>series.<\/p>\n Bernthal has a lot going on right now as he prepares for a very big 2026 and we’re not just talking about the return of The Punisher<\/a> in both a movie and a TV series.<\/p>\n That alone is a pretty big deal, though, as\u00a0Daredevil: Born Again\u00a0<\/em>will premiere in March 2026 on Disney+.Spider-Man: Brand New Day<\/a><\/em>will hit theaters on July 31, 2026.<\/p>\n We’ll also see Bernthal in the highly anticipated The Odyssey, <\/em>which premieres in theaters on July 17, 2026. In that retelling of the classic Greek tale directed by Christopher Nolan<\/strong>, he will play Antinous, the leader of the noblemen-turned-suitors vying for Penelope’s hand.<\/p>\n This story was originally reported by Parade<\/a> on Sep 21, 2025, where it first appeared in the News<\/a> section.
