THE PUNISHER (TV Series 2017)
A spin-off series about the man, Frank Castle, who was introduced as an antagonist/villain in Daredevil Season 2, known for his brutal crimes but haunted by a tragic past. He is a man full of rage and hatred, but he has his sensitive moments, particularly when he is around a character called Karen Page, of whom brings out his lighter side. The director and actors described the pair as being the only two in the series who can truly understand and show their real selves to each other, coming from similar places (much like Rey and Kylo). Similar to Kylo Ren, Frank has done some very dark things in the past under the command of somebody else, having been treated like a weapon, which he struggles to cope with.
Before watching this series, I would definitely recommend watching Netflix’s Daredevil first, so you can see how he (and Karen) are introduced and how they meet each other. All the other ‘hero’ characters in the series judge Frank’s actions and call him ‘unhinged’ while the media constantly demonizes him. Karen is the one to understand and defend him. I think Frank and Karen’s relationship is a great example of how two people can start out on opposing sides, pointing guns at each other, to bonding over their similarities until they realize they find belonging in one another.
