Jonathan Edward Bernthal

Fans and fans of John Bernthal, who played the Punisher, wax Al Capone and a simple zombie killer, call the actor the embodiment of John Wick. The man, like the character of Keanu Reeves, dresses in dark suits, loves dogs and often looks too serious.

However, in real life, the artist has nothing to do with a cold-blooded killer. In his free time, Bernthal is engaged in charity work, and the actor's Instagram is full of warm pictures with his children, wife and parents.

On September 20, 1976, in the family of the famous lawyer Eric Bernthal (both the father and the mother of the actor are emigrated Jews), a boy was born, whom the spouses named John. The child was born in Washington and grew up surrounded by brothers - Nicholas and Thomas. Despite the serious profession of his father, in the Berntals' house they often talked about creativity - John's grandfather and uncle built a career in the music industry.

By the end of school, the young man, who devoted his free time to boxing and baseball, reached a height of 1.78 m (now the actor's weight is 85 kg). Relatives prophesied to the teenager a career as a professional athlete or lawyer, but a chance meeting with an acting teacher turned the biography of the young man.

The girl advised John to go to Russia to get an education at the Moscow Art Theater. Bernthal easily entered a Russian university, began to master a new language for himself and at the same time studied ballet, practiced acrobatics and played baseball. After completing his studies, the young man returned to the United States, where he later continued his education at Harvard and received a Master of Arts degree.

Despite the prestigious education, the acting career was not immediately built. The first stop on the way of the actor was New York, where John participated in performances that little-known directors put on in "off-Broadway" theaters. Bernthal starred in over 30 plays before moving to Los Angeles to try his hand at filmmaking.

The man got his first episodic role in a movie in 1999 in the popular TV series Law & Order. The debut was followed by a series of small works that were not remembered by the audience.

In 2006, Berntal was lucky. The man received his first permanent role in the series "Class". John appeared before the public in the guise of a working guy who dreams of returning his school love. The ratings of the serial film did not satisfy the producers, so the series was discontinued after the first season.

In 2009, the actor was offered a supporting role in the film "Night at the Museum 2". The man played the role of Al Capone, and a year later John was cast in the TV series "The Walking Dead". Later in an interview, the artist admits that he turned down 2 lucrative offers from the film studio even before he was approved for the zombie series. The man just felt that he would get the role, and did not want to be exchanged for something else.

Participation in a successful project ended for Bernthal in 2012. It was rumored that the actor himself asked the writers to eliminate the character, because he was tired of acting in a film about the apocalypse. But John denied the information, stating that his character had ceased to exist both in the series and in the comic, which was the original source of the plot.

Already in 2013, the man gets the role of Brad Bodnik in the film "The Wolf of Wall Street" by Martin Scorsese. The next step to world fame was the film "Rage", where the actor played along with Brad Pitt. To get a cameo role, Bernthal had to go through several auditions. To get more credibility in the frame, the producers sent the entire cast to a camp for military recruits, where the men had to learn a new craft.

In 2014, during a break between filming, the actor presented his voice and partly appearance to the computer character from the game Callof Duty: Advanced Warfare, Jim Decker. A year later, representatives of the MCU "Marvel" invited Bernthal to become the embodiment of the hero from the comics, nicknamed the Punisher (real name - Frank Castle). The man plays an important role in the plot of the second season of "Daredevil" - a serial film about a blind superhero.

John had to continue the character's story in the same year that Netflix launched an independent series about the fate of an unusual hero. Frank Castle - a man obsessed with the idea of ​​revenge for his family, single-handedly fighting the mafia using the most brutal methods. In 2017, it became known about the extension of the popular multi-part film for a second season.

Another major role went to John in the film "Shot into the Void". Bernthal reincarnated as a guy nicknamed "Volyna". Nikolai Koster-Waldau and Omari Hardwicke became colleagues on the set.

Despite his openness and sociability, John does not talk about his family in interviews. In September 2010, the actor married his longtime girlfriend Erin Engle. The man calls his beloved "Lila Bird" and even got a tattoo with the nickname of his beloved on his chest. The wedding took place in a mansion located in the city of Potomac.

The wife of The Walking Dead star grew up in a family where wrestling was especially revered (the girl is Kurt Angle's own niece). Therefore, before marriage, Erin herself took part in competitions. After the marriage, the girl left sports and is raising children.

In August 2011, the couple became parents for the first time. The Bernthal couple gave birth to a boy named Billy. 2 years later, in February 2013, Henry Bernthal was born. John became a father for the third time in February 2015. This time the couple had a girl, whom her parents named Adeline.

In June 2018, it became known about negotiations between the actor and the production center, which is launching the film "Ford vs. Ferrari". John is offered the role of Lee Iacocchi, a well-known marketer working for Ford. Matt Damon and Christian Bale will play together in Bernthal. The film is set to premiere in 2019.

Following the announcement of the new film, the artist's fans were stunned by the news - John may again return to the image of Shane from The Walking Dead. The paparazzi took a photo of the man on the set along with other actors of the series. Another reason to believe in Bernthal's unexpected return was the news that Andrew Lincoln (male lead) was leaving the show. With Shane's return, the producers hope to keep the attention of a disappointed audience.

In the second half of 2018, the premiere of the film "Widows", in which John played one of the main male roles, will take place. The script for the film was a joint work of Steve McQueen ("12 Years a Slave") and Gillian Flynn ("Gone Girl").

Another new work in the actor's filmography is "Peanut Butter Falcon." The exact release date of the dramatic comedy, as well as other details of filming and post-production, are still unknown. The film tells about the adventures of a young man with Down's disease who dreams of becoming a professional wrestling wrestler.

The latest news about the life of the actor can be found on John's Twitter account. There, a man shares his favorite films, important news for him and personal photos.
