In the leaked video, you can seeJon Bernthal’s Punisher hiding and waiting for someone who is soon revealed to be White Tiger. As soon as White Tiger appears on screen, he is shot down by The Punisher, presumably to his death, who later walks away from the crime scene.
While in the comics, the mantle of White Tiger was taken on by both halves of the brother-sister duo, Hector and Ava Ayala, you can clearly see that the version inDaredevil: Born Againis Hector.

However, rumors have been circulating thatWednesdayactress,Jenna Ortega, was going to play White Tiger in the upcoming reset ofDaredevil.If this is true, it could mean that Ortega will play Ava Ayala who takes on the character after Bernthal’s Punisher shoots her brother dead, as can be seen in the video. As of now, there are no reports on who is behind the White Tiger mask in the leaked video.
Jon Bernthal Was Reportedly Unhappy withDaredevil: Born Again
According to a fan who had the opportunity to meet Bernthal, the actor was the least bit interested in reprising his role as The Punisher as he was not satisfied with the first version ofDaredevil: Born Again.However, after a creative reset, the actor spared no time in getting on board theBorn Againwagon.

The fan wrote onX,
“[Bernthal] told me that he’s apparently been turning down marvel when it comes to playing punisher over and over again because they hadn’t been getting it right, but the small part he now has in DD Born Again is good in his eyes.”
Luckily for his fans, the creators were able to get Bernthal to say yes to reprising his role. After all, a Daredevil project without The Punisher seems incomplete, doesn’t it?
Daredevil: Born Againwill be released on Disney+ in 2025.
