I think if Betenthal does well on DD season 2 and audiences respond to him it's not inconceivable that he could get his own Netflix show, hell they could even do a movie, they already made three Punishers, one that has audience support and an established actor as the character it would probably do better than the last two.

Who or what is Betenthal??

Jon Bernthal is who I think they mean.

From those already mentioned or introduced (or soon to be):

The Punisher - will be introduced in season 2 of Marvel's Daredevil. I'd like to see Frank Castle branch off into his own series, where he'll continue to serve up his own brand of justice. Nicky Cavella would make for a great 1st villain with a dark twisted back story involving him growing up in the Mafia, being ordered to kill his own family by his Aunt, and then later forced to have sex with that Aunt.

Elektra - also being introduced in season 2 of Daredevil, I think through her we could delve even deeper into the mysterious groups that have already made their appearance in the 1st season of DD. Obviously, her opponent would be The Hand.

Patsy Walker - we've already seen the beginnings of her story in Jessica Jones. I wouldn't mind if she received a spin-off where we get to witness her transition from a former child star/talk-show host into heroic vigilante. The big bad for her series could be Will Simpson and those responsible for the combat enhancers.

Misty Knight - we already know that she is set to have a role in the upcoming Luke Cage series. Maybe the Misty Knight we'll get here will be her as a cop before she loses her arm; and a spin-off series could open with the events that lead to her getting the bionic arm and possibly teaming up with the other half of the Daughters of the Dragon, Colleen Wing.

White Tiger (Angela del Toro) - she was mentioned by name in Jessica Jones. Some think she might get introduced in the Iron Fist series. Which would be great, and then give her her own 13 episode series. The villain for her series could be Gideon Mace; the man who's ultimately responsible for the death of her uncle.

Others I'd like to See:

Black Knight - Just imagine this modern day knight roaming the dark, gritty streets of New York. Could be a fun way to inject a little more of the mystical world that's about to come from Doctor Strange & has been hinted at in Daredevil; and bringing some of that world of magic and myth to Netflix could be interesting. And if they introduce Valkyrie, whom I think just feels like a natural fit as his partner, then that would give a stronger link between the Netflix series and the main MCU.

Night Thrasher - With Netflix focusing on the more "Earth-based" heroes, I think Night Thrasher; who is a vigilante with no super powers who has a special suit made so that he can take on those who DO have powers, would be a perfect fit for the Marvel/Netflix world. Not to mention, he'd be a great lead way to the New Warriors.

Silver Sable - Even though she's heavily associated with Spider-Man, I think Silver Sable and her group of mercenaries would work so much better in the gritty world of Marvel/Netflix. I think there's more than enough military soldier-esque characters in the movies; so give this one to Netflix.

Shang Chi - With characters like Daredevil, Elektra, and Iron Fist being introduced, I think it'd only be natural to bring Shang Chi to the fight. So, why not in his own series?

No elktra should stay with dd

reply

As much as I want Elektra's spin off. I'd prefer Thunderbolts which include Elektra, Punisher and Deadpool more. But we need to get Deadpool back to Marvel first.

reply

Oh yes I second Moon Knight.

reply

White Tiger would be a pretty cool one to have.

as long as it something different. ill rather keep Hellcat with Jessica Jones cause it feels better.

reply

Punisher
Elektra
Hellcat
Moon Knight
Blade
Ghost Rider (although I don't know if they could do it on a TV budget)

but the characters I would most like to see get a Netflix show...Cloak and Dagger.

Seeing as I don't think The Runaways movie will ever get off the back burner I think it would make a good show in the hands of netflix
