The gripping new Daredevil season 2 trailer lays out the bloody welcome mat for Frank Castle, a.k.a. The Punisher.
The trailer, released today, sets up the conflict between Castle (Jon Bernthal) and Charlie Cox’s Matt Murdock — and teases the tension that The Punisher creates between Matt and his friends.
The first full Daredevil season 2 trailer is rich with details and suggestion for a brutal and intense season. “No good deed goes unpunished,” the text promises, and it seems to be true. Karen philosophizes over whether Daredevil’s vigilantism has “created” The Punisher, while Castle himself has nothing but disdain for Matt’s “half-measures” of violent justice.
“You hit ’em and they get back up,” Castle tells Murdock. “I hit ’em and they stay down.”
But as delicious as the Daredevil season 2 trailer is, this first look is just part of the feast. The trailer ends with Matt finding Elektra Natchios (Elodie Yung) in his apartment — and a promise of “Part Two” of this trailer on February 25.
All Elektra, all the time please, Netflix!
To whet fans appetite further, the Daredevil season 2 synopsis has also been released. As expected, Matt Murdock’s life isn’t going to be getting any easier with the arrival of the newest players in Hell’s Kitchen.

Just when Matt thinks he is bringing order back to the city, new forces are rising in Hell’s Kitchen. Now the Man Without Fear must take on a new adversary in Frank Castle and face an old flame — Elektra Natchios.
Bigger problems emerge when Frank Castle, a man looking for vengeance, is reborn as The Punisher, a man who takes justice into his own hands in Matt’s neighborhood. Meanwhile, Matt must balance his duty to his community as a lawyer and his dangerous life as the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen, facing a life-altering choice that forces him to truly understand what it means to be a hero.
Daredevil season 2 hits Netflix on March 18, 2016.
