The Punisher special isn't beating the unfinished allegations as Disney confirms Marvel is "working on a solution" to audio issues

Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle in The Punisher: One Last Kill.

Disney has confirmed that audio issues for The Punisher: One Last Kill have been identified and are on the way to being fixed.

In reply to a (admittedly, very NSFW) rant about sound in The Punisher special, the Disney Plus Help Twitter account wrote, "Thank you for reaching out and letting us know you're experiencing no audio while watching The Punisher: One Last Kill. The good news is that our team knows about this particular issue and is working on a solution as we speak."

There have also been other reports of inaudible conversations, poor audio mixing, and general quality across social media, but it appears to be getting amended.

The other Punisher snafu has been explained away, however. Fans roundly mocked a shot of Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle falling out of a building, with some comparing it to PS3 graphics or a GTA cutscene.

According to sources that spoke to The Hollywood Reporter, it was all a real shot, but with Bernthal's face swapped in to replace a stuntman – hence the uncanny effect. So, that's that.

After his violent detour on Disney Plus, The Punisher is next set to appear on the big screen in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

Speaking to The Direct, The Punisher: One Last Kill director Reinaldo Marcus Green hinted that the special would bridge the gap to Frank Castle's awkward team-up with Spidey.

"We [now] know his psychological state before he goes into Spider-Man. I couldn't have asked for better timing for us," Green told The Direct.

The Punisher: One Last Kill is now streaming on Disney Plus. For our verdict, be sure to read The Punisher: One Last Kill review.
