Disney+’s new TV and movie release schedule for May 11 to May 17, 2026, includes Marvel’s The Punisher: One Last Kill.

The television special’s character Frank Castle/Punisher last appeared in Daredevil: Born Again Season 1, where he ran away from the prison in the end. In the new story directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green, Castle decides to lead a life without the goal of revenge. However, life ends up throwing another conflict at him.

The upcoming special seeks inspiration from the comic series Welcome Back, Frank by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon. Lead actor Jon Bernthal told Games Radar, “Ennis doesn’t apologize for Frank. He subverts the hero genre by being comfortable with the ugly and gray side of heroism, finding truth in the sordid dust of desperation and anger…”

The 49-year-old continued, “That honesty was my north star when writing and producing Marvel Television’s upcoming Punisher special. Ennis and Steve Dillon gave us a character with clarity of purpose and absolute commitment, someone who channels loss into action with brutal honesty.”
