The untitled Punisher television special is an upcoming American television special directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green and written by Green and Jon Bernthal for the streaming service Disney+, based on Marvel Comics featuring the character Punisher. It is intended to be the third Marvel Studios Special Presentation in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), sharing continuity with the films and television series of the franchise. The special is produced by Marvel Studios and the second MCU project centered on the character following the television series The Punisher (2017–2019), which was produced by Marvel Television and originally released on Netflix.

Bernthal reprises his role as Frank Castle / Punisher from Marvel's Netflix television series and the Disney+ series Daredevil: Born Again (2025–present). Following the cancellation of The Punisher in 2019, Bernthal was cast for Born Again in March 2023. A special featuring his character was conceived during filming of the first season of that series, with Bernthal and Green revealed to be working on the project with Marvel Studios in February 2025.

The special is set to be released in 2026, as part of Phase Six of the MCU.
