He reprised the role in the 2017 Netflix series The Punisher. While initially hesitant in joining a superhero franchise, Bernthal decided to take the role after admiring the performances of actors Vincent D'Onofrio and Charlie Cox in the first season of Daredevil. Critics commended Bernthal's performance as The Punisher, with IGN calling it "an absolutely stellar, gutting performance".

In Sweet Virginia, Bernthal plays Sam, a gentle motel-owner with Parkinson's disease; critics praised his performance. His portrayal of the title character in The Punisher was commended as a "truly remarkable and intense performance" for its emotional depth and "possibly the best grizzly antihero performance among all of Marvel's Netflix series to date".

In November 2017, on Jim Norton and Sam Roberts, Bernthal's interview made news, due to his description of Kevin Spacey, who had faced recent sexual assault charges, of making him uncomfortable on the set of Baby Driver. Bernthal stated that he "lost all respect" for Spacey and that "he was a bit of a bully."
