Before It Happens, Jon Bernthal Has Already Made Peace With Netflix Cancelling “The Punisher”

In the wake of Netflix cancelling “Daredevil,” “Luke Cage” and “Iron Fist,” it would seem that the partnership between the streaming service and Marvel is coming to an end, with many believing that it’s only a matter of time before “Jessica Jones” and “The Punisher” get the ax. Mind you, they haven’t yet been cancelled, but don’t be surprised if they soon are.

The second season of “The Punisher” only just hit Netflix earlier this month, and Jon Bernthal has already made peace with the fact that the second season may be the show’s last.

Bernthal just told Variety, “I know the reality of the situation and I’m at peace with it. I really only worry about the things I can control. When I’m playing the character and I’m doing the job and it’s right there in front of me, I do whatever I can to make it as good as I can. But in this business there’s so much we can’t control. Whatever is happening with these shows, these decisions are being made in rooms I’m not invited into and I’m okay with that.”

In a chat with Collider, Bernthal expressed similar sentiments. He told the site, “It’s gonna be what it’s gonna be. I get it. You know what I know. Part of the deal with this profession is that you can make a choice and worry about the shit that you can’t control, or you can worry about the shit that you can. For me, all I’ve ever cared about with this project is that I want it to be as good as it can, and I’ll fight to make it as good as I can. It’s not whether we get the chance [to do another season] or not.”

He added, “But if we’re doing it, you better believe that I’m gonna put all of my energy into making it good. I like to focus on things I can control, and I certainly cannot control that.”

The slasher-themed relaunch of “Pretty Little Liars” continues this coming May with “Pretty Little Liars: Summer School,” and you can slash into the official trailer down below.

“Summer School” begins on Max on May 9, 2024.

The Max Original series from Warner Bros. Television debuts with two episodes on Thursday, May 9, we’ve learned, followed by one new episode weekly through June 20 on Max.

Following the harrowing events of “Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin,” our Pretty Little Liars face a fate worse than death – summer school. However, Millwood High isn’t the only thing getting in the way of their fun summer jobs and new, dreamy love interests.

A new villain, who may or may not have a connection to A, has come to town and is going to put them all to the test.

Bailee Madison, Chandler Kinney, Zaria, Malia Pyles, and Maia Reficco return as the next generation of Pretty Little Liars.

The series also stars Mallory Bechtel, Sharon Leal, Alex Aiono, Jordan Gonzalez, and Elias Kacavas.

The series is created, written, and executive produced by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (“Riverdale,” “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”) and Lindsay Calhoon Bring (“Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”). Aguirre-Sacasa’s Muckle Man Productions and Alloy Entertainment produce, in association with Warner Bros. Television.

Alloy’s Leslie Morgenstein and Gina Girolamo are also executive producers, along with Marlene King (who developed the original “Pretty Little Liars” series), and Michael Grassi.
