On President’s Day, Netflix decided to announce the last two casualties of their Marvel Television Universe. That’s right folks, The Punisher and Jessica Jones have been officially canceled. This news came just ahead of Jessica Jones’ third season set to release later this year.
Punisher star Jon Bernthal took to Instagram to say his farewells to Frank Castle by saying “To all who have served. All who know loss. All who love and understand Frank and his pain. It has been an honor to walk in his boots. I’m endlessly grateful to the comic fans and the men and women of the Armed Services and law enforcement community who Frank means so much to. Thank you to the USMC and all the wonderful soldiers who trained me. Go Hard. Be safe.”
Jessica Jones Star Krysten Ritter also posted her farewells on Instagram stating “It has been a dream to play Jessica alongside my amazing cast and the best crew in the business for these past 5 years. I am so grateful for every second of it. We have THE BEST fans. You guys mean the world to me and I appreciate you beyond words. The final season of #JessicaJones is coming later this year and I am proud of how we complete JJ’s journey. I can’t wait for you all to see it. Stay tuned and more to come.”
For fans of these television programs, this is a sad day indeed. So, let’s take a moment to pay our respects to these amazing shows.
Hugh Jackman was on This Morning on Wednesday and got a surprise of a lifetime. This Mornings host, Alison Hammond, presented Jackman with a Guinness World Record for having the longest career as a live-action Marvel Superhero. He also learned that he shared this record with his friend and X-Men Co-Star Patrick Stewart.

The record is 16 years 228 days, now one has to wonder, will this record ever be broken?
Production on Star Wars Episode IX wrapped on Friday and JJ Abrams posted this photo on Twitter and captioned it with “It feels impossible, but today wrapped photography on Episode IX. There is no adequate way to thank this truly magical crew and cast. I’m forever indebted to you all.”
As of yet, there is still no official title for this final film of the Skywalker saga. With this film premiering in less than 10 months and with Star Wars Celebration just around the corner, you can bet that we are going to some information about this film soon.
