Eminem is displeased with Netflix canceling The Punisher.
As we all know Netflix is canceling all Marvel’s shows lately because Disney is planning to launch their own streaming service soon. The list of canceled shows includes Daredevil, Iron Fish, Like Cage, The Defenders, and the most recent and fan-favorite The Punisher. It looks like Detroit rapper Eminem was also a fan of the show as he shows his frustrations on Twitter by calling out Netflix. Eminem also featured in a Marvel comic on The Punisher back in the days.
DEAR @NETFLIX,
REGARDING YOUR CANCELLATION OF THE PUNISHER, YOU ARE BLOWING IT!!
SINCERELY,
MARSHALL— Marshall Mathers (@Eminem) February 21, 2019
On Twitter, the show’s primary actor, Jon Bernthal, who portrays Frank Castle aka The Punisher, expressed his admiration for Eminem and referred to him as “the king.”
Dear Em. Honored you watch brother. 💀. You are the King. https://t.co/vcZcEoUF57

The show’s other cast member, Amber Rose Revah, who plays Dinah Madani in the show, also tweeted after learning that Eminem watches the show and compared it to having your first child. Floriana Lima, who played Krista Dumont in The Punisher’s second season, also expressed her admiration on Twitter.
I guess this means @Eminem watches our show. I imagine this is that same feeling as when you have your first child. https://t.co/UNJWbfGzQD
