Jonathan E. "Jon" Bernthal is an American film and television actor. He was born in Washington, D.C. on September 20th, 1976. He first came to the attention of geeks and horror fans with his portrayal of gun-toting bad boy Shane Walsh on the AMC survival horror series The Walking Dead. He was introduced in the pilot episode of the show, "Days Gone Bye" and appeared in every episode from season one. Bernthal was credited in all thirteen episodes from season two, but only appeared in the first twelve. Bernthal made a one-time return to the show in the season three episode, "Made to Suffer", where his character appeared as an hallucination.

Apparently, playing a gun-toting bad boy settled well with Bernthal. In 2016, he was cast to play the ultimate ass-kicker, Frank Castle, aka the Punisher in season two of the Netflix original series, Daredevil, adding his name to the long list of fine actors who comprise the whole of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
