What is The Punisher: One Last Kill’s TV rating?
The news for the upcoming special confirms that the Jon Bernthal-led presentation will be rated TV-MA. This means the show won’t be shying away from the typical attitude of the character, as many fans had been worried he would be more “PG” going forward thanks to his upcoming appearance in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
AMarvelTelevision Special Presentation: The Punisher: One Last Kill debuts on Disney+ at 6 p.m. PT/9 p.m. ET on May 12, 2026. Directed byReinaldo Marcus Green, theMCUspecial will once again seeJon Bernthalreprise his role asFrank Castle/The Punisher.

Bernthal’s Punisher first debuted in the Netflix Daredevil show. He’s become a regular part of the Daredevil cast since then, though Frank Castle has not been a part of Daredevil: Born Again Season 2.
