While Marvel's cinematic universe is keeping fans occupied as of now with 'Avengers: Infinity War' rampaging the box-office, their TV counterpart is also preparing for some exciting times. 

After an immensely successful first run of their breakout series, The Punisher is gearing up for a much-awaited second season. And if latest reports are any proof, production is already underway with on-set pictures and first glimpses of season 2 flooding the Internet. 

"That’s right. Filming for Season 2 is now well underway, and that means set photos. Lovely spoilery set photos," a description shared alongside the on-set photos on the official Facebook page of the show read. 

"These particular ones show Frank taking a stroll with sassy street kid Amy Bendix (Giorgia Whigham)," it continued, "Exciting times...

Indeed, all eyes will be on the lead character of Frank Castle (portrayed by actor Jon Bernthal) as he reprises his Punisher role once again in the comic-book inspired series. However, it's no more a solo mission for Frank, as evident from the pictures, where he is accompanied by another famous character from the comic series, Amy. 

Besides Whigham-played Amy, fans should expect few other fresh introductions as well, and this includes the role of psychotherapist Kristen Dumont, a character that will be brought to life by none other than Floriana Lima of Supergirl fame. 

As for the plot details, it is yet to be seen if the show takes after the 'Suicide Run' storyline or adapts the highly-speculated story of 'The Slavers'. 


Hopefully, both Netflix and Marvel would dish out more details as the show nears its premiere date, sometime in late 2019.
