Filming just wrapped on Marvel Studios' upcoming Punisher special, and to mark the occasion, Frank Castle actor Jon Bernthal delivered an impassioned, F-bomb laden speech thanking the cast, crew, and people in the neighborhood where the special was filmed (via Instagram user stevesandsnyc).

"I really believe with heart, and belief, and teamwork, and love, the impossible really is possible, and this motherfucker was impossible," Bernthal enthusiastically declares in the speech. "But we really fuckin' did it. We really fuckin' did it. And this street right here has been magic to us.

Bernthal's salt-of-the-earth enthusiasm really comes through in his speech – a far cry from the depressed emotional aloofness of his character Frank Castle, who grimly slaughters his way through the criminal underworld.
