Two 2024 Emmy Winners Are About To Appear In The MCU Close Jon Bernthal will be reprising his role as The Punisher for the upcoming Disney+ series Daredevil: Born Again. He previously played Frank Castle in the Netflix Daredevil series before getting his own show, aptly titled The Punisher. Though the Defenders Saga seems to be included in the main MCU timeline now, it wasn"t a Marvel Studios production, meaning Daredevil: Born Again will be the first official appearance by Bernthal in an MCU project. His portrayal of The Punisher is fantastic, and it was smart of Marvel to fold in the same cast from the original series.

Why Marvel's 2024 Emmy-Winning Actors Are Such Exciting Additions To The MCU

Jon Bernthal is one of the best actors working today and his Emmy win proves that. He won for his role as Michael in The Bear, one of the best shows of the decade, for Best Guest Actor in a comedy series. Though Bernthal only shows up sporadically in The Bear, his scenes are some of the most emotionally impactful, with the actor performing at his peak. Having him back as The Punisher is just icing on top as he had some of the most memorable moments in the entire Defenders Saga.

Ebon Moss-Bachrach won Best Supporting Actor in a comedy series for his turn as Richie in The Bear. In a lot of ways, Richie is the beating heart of The Bear and Moss-Bachrach helped turn the character from someone who could be unlikable to a person who"s sympathetic and compelling. His vulnerability as Richie is astounding, and he should be able to bring a lot of those aspects to a character like Ben Grimm. The Thing is a fascinating Marvel character and having Moss-Bachrach on board for him is excellent casting.
The MCU has always attracted incredible actors, since the very beginning when they boldly cast Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man. Along the way, some of the most prolific actors of all time have joined the fold. Now, the MCU officially has two more award winners after Moss-Bachrach and Bernthal took home some hardware at the 2024 Emmy Awards. They are two profoundly great actors, and the MCU is just that much better for having them on board.
