A second season of ''The Punisher'' was ordered by ] in December 2017, less than a month after the first season was released.<ref name="Season2" /> Showrunner ] had an idea of what a second season would be when he first knew what the "journey of Season 1" was at the start of his work on the series, and did not let the fan reaction to the first season affect his plans since "some people love it, some people hate it, some people are in the middle. My personal opinion with that stuff is you just have to be true to the character and the story you choose to tell."<ref name="LightfootColliderJul2018" /> The season consists of 13 episodes.<ref name="Jan2019Release" /> |

Lightfoot felt the theme for the season was ] "adopting the mantle" of the Punisher. The season begins with Castle traveling across the United States as a way for him to get "a look at the country he fought for but has never really seen" according to Lightfoot. Costume designer Lorraine Calvert gave Castle a "more relaxed" look while he is traveling, having him wear ]. Castle eventually puts back on another vest with the characters iconic skull symbol, with Lightfoot and ] working to make that "an integral, plot-driven moment" in the season. Bernthal felt they had "figured out a very intelligent, very tactical reason, a very psychologically tactical reason to wear it" with it making "a lot of sense". Lightfoot also spoke to the inclusion of ] in the season, feeling the relationship between her and Castle would continue "to be very important".<ref name="Collider30Things" /> |

The makeup department worked meticulously to realistically place the scars on ]'s face, who is still recovering from his injuries and is suffering from brain damage, memory issues, and self-pity. Though Russo resembles the character Jigsaw from the comics, he does not take on that name in the season. ] also shaved his head for the role this season and adopts a thicker, rougher, New York accent, "more akin to his Bensonhurts roots". Barnes felt Russo had a vulnerability in the season similar to ]'s portrayal of ] in the ] of '']''. Dinah Madani has become "fixated" on Russo, visiting at the hospital daily with complete "tunnel-vision on him". ] added that Madani is "self-medicating" after the events of the first season, resorting to drinking an promiscuous behavior. As Krista Dumont is "ery uptight doesn’t want to let anyone into her personal world", Calvert worked to make her wardrobe equally concealing. Doing this "became a really important part of her character, to hide behind the facade of the clothes that cover her up."<ref name="Collider30Things" /> |
