When speaking to Comicbook.com in 2019 actor Royce Johnson, who plays Detective Brett Mahoney in ‘Daredevil’ and ‘The Punisher’ said the following about it:
"Talking to Jeph Loeb, I read that the memo had said, ‘To be continued’.
There is a clause that I heard through rumour that we have to wait 18 months, up to two years."
"Will we get the same people? We don’t know that. I think they got together with a great team, I mean, with the writers, producers, editors, scorers, the stunt teams, everybody.
I mean, we couldn’t be more thankful with the crew we had, but it wasn’t a Marvel issue."
"Apparently, it was Netflix that said, ‘We’re not moving forward.’ For whatever reason. I mean, I know these shows are costly with the CGI, and stunt guys, and special effects, and stuff.
And that costs money, and maybe Netflix felt that they weren’t gonna profit from it, and then this whole purge started, you know?
Would you be excited to see ‘The Punisher’ revived? Let us know!
