'The Punisher' Solo Series Air Date, Spoilers, News & Update: Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle To Face Paul Schulze's Villainous William Rawlins?

Jon Bernthal's "The Punisher" solo series is moving forward quickly, adding five new cast members to its impressive lineup. One addition happens to be "Nurse Jackie" star Paul Schulze, who will portray high-ranking CIA member William Rawlins who could get on Frank Castle's bad side.

Is Schulze set to play the show's second villain after Ben Barnes' Billy Russo? Will the Netflix series highlight Rawlins' comic book storyline?

Jon Bernthal's 'The Punisher' Casts Paul Schulze As Marvel Villain William Rawlins

Well, Paul Schulze's character is only referred to as "Rawlins" (via Marvel), but it's a name that comic book fans won't miss too easily. If Schulze is playing a version of William Rawlins in "The Punisher", then there is little doubt that he won't be a good guy for long.

In the comics, Rawlins was ordered to organize Frank Castle's death but ends up getting caught and tortured by Frank. Will "The Punisher" solo series show the dark side of Rawlins when he goes up against Jon Bernthal?

It's no secret that the Marvel shows on Netflix prefer to portray its villains in a certain way. For example, "Jessica Jones" character Will Simpson started out as a well-meaning police officer but is eventually revealed to be a version of comic book villain Frank Simpson aka Nuke.

It is possible that "The Punisher" will give Paul Schulze's Rawlins a similar treatment. But who else could go up against Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle in the series?

Billy Russo is still listed as one of Frank Castle's allies in "The Punisher" solo series. However, there are more speculations that Frank's best friend will end up betraying him in the show.

Will Billy work with Paul Schulze's Rawlins in an effort to capture Jon Bernthal's vigilante? The truth will be revealed when "The Punisher" airs on Netflix next year.
