Hulk and Punisher Gatecrash Spider-Man: Brand New Day Trailer

Ars Technica reports that Spider-Man: Brand New Day drops a new trailer about six weeks before its July 31, 2026 release. Peter Parker is an adult living in secrecy after No Way Home’s memory erasure, and the promo teases a troubling mutation that may unleash a powerful threat. Bruce Banner/Hulk and Frank Castle/Punisher join the cast alongside Tom Holland and Zendaya, with appearances by Daredevil and Mac Gargan/Scorpion; Sadie Sink, Liza Colón-Zayas, and Trammell Tillman are in undisclosed roles. Peter asks Banner if he can keep the good parts of the mutation while shedding the dangerous ones, as Banner cautions about defining what parts of nature are “good.” Destin Daniel Cretton directs, and the movie hints at a possible rebirth and a new Spider-Man trilogy for Holland.

Punisher Meets Spider-Man: Can Ultra-Violence Coexist With Brand New Day?

Jon Bernthal’s Punisher returns in The Punisher: One Last Kill, a brutally violent MCU special that raises a key question: how will Frank Castle, a mass murderer, team up with Tom Holland’s family-friendly Spider-Man in Spider-Man: Brand New Day? The self-contained special emphasizes extreme violence and leaves unclear how—or if—the tonal clash will be addressed in the film, which is streaming on Disney+, with Brand New Day hitting theaters on July 31, 2026.

Punisher: One Last Kill Delivers Brutal Origin, But Struggles with Purpose

The Punisher: One Last Kill is an almost hour-long Marvel One-Shot that serves as a brisk, violent refresher of Frank Castle’s origin, anchored by Jon Bernthal’s performance; it delivers visceral action and a clear look into the Punisher’s psyche, but its purpose feels unclear as it doesn’t neatly bridge to Daredevil: Born Again or Spider-Man: Brand New Day, leaving viewers wondering how it all connects.

Punisher: One Last Kill Sparks Online Mockery Over Unfinished VFX and Audio

Punisher: One Last Kill Sparks Online Mockery Over Unfinished VFX and Audio

Disney+'s The Punisher: One Last Kill drew online ridicule for an unfinished-looking VFX moment—Frank Castle's fall resembled a PS3-era cutscene—while fans complained of low dialogue in the audio mix. Disney+ acknowledged the audio issue and said a fix is in progress. A production source says the stunt was performed in-camera with Jon Bernthal and a stuntman handling the impact, with some VFX including swapping the stuntman's face for Bernthal's. Despite the hiccup, the special has been well-received overall (86% on Rotten Tomatoes, 91% audience) and continues The Punisher storyline in upcoming projects like Daredevil: Born Again and Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

Bernthal’s Punisher Goes All-In on Trauma in Brutal MCU Special

Jon Bernthal's Punisher returns in Punisher: One Last Kill, a brutal 48-minute Marvel Special Presentation that doubles as a PTSD-driven character study. The action is relentless and the gravesite scene is haunting, delivering a darker, more mature tone than typical MCU fare, while raising questions about how the anti-hero will fit into a PG-13 Spider-Man universe.

Punisher: One Last Kill Is a Twist, Not the End, Says Director

Director Reinaldo Marcus Green says the Disney+ special’s title One Last Kill is a deliberate misdirection meant to subvert expectations rather than signal the Punisher’s end. The piece frames the project as a deep, one-shot character study that hints at Frank Castle’s continued presence in the MCU with tones that will vary across titles, including a substantial role in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
