A Shot From Disney’s New Punisher Special Is Going Viral For Looking Like A PS3 Game [Update]

A viral rooftop-fall shot from Disney+’s new Punisher special sparked backlash for looking like rough PS3-era CGI.

The original report blamed poor VFX, but a later update said the scene was mostly practical, with Jon Bernthal’s face digitally mapped onto a stunt double.

The clip fueled broader criticism of Disney and Marvel’s visual effects pipeline amid layoffs and AI concerns.

The clarification suggests the shot was not fully unfinished CGI, but a hybrid of practical filming and face replacement.
