In 'Spider-Man,' 'The Odyssey' or 'The Bear,' Jon Bernthal loves to 'take it too far'

Jon Bernthal, has spent two decades playing the kind of men you'd want to avoid, and somehow he makes you root for them anyway. This summer, he's in two major films, reprising his role as The Punisher in the upcoming Spider-Man movie and starring in Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey." His breakout role in 2010 was as Shane on "The Walking Dead" - a sheriff's deputy protecting a band of survivors from zombies until he becomes the greater threat.
