Bernthal has joined Tom Holland in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the latest Spider-Man movie from Sony and Marvel. Destin Daniel Cretton is directing the feature, which will shoot in England this summer and has a July 31, 2026, release date.

Bernthal made his debut as vigilante Frank Castle, aka the Punisher, in Netflix’s Daredevil, later leading his own gritty Marvel series. He recently reprised the role in Daredevil: Born Again on Disney+, and Marvel is further investing in the character with a standalone Punisher film, which Bernthal is also co-writing.

Next summer sees the release of Tom Holland’s fourth MCU solo movie as Peter Parker. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is expected to be a more grounded street-level Marvel adventure following the multiverse-clashing antics of Spider-Man: No Way Home, with variant Webslingers Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield.
