Jon Bernthal is enjoying a surge in popularity in 2026, and it has revived interest in one of his lesser-known films, the 2021 Taylor Sheridan Western Those Who Wish Me Dead. The wildfire thriller, in which Bernthal has a supporting role alongside lead Angelina Jolie, has climbed into Netflix's US top 10 most-watched titles despite taking only $19 million at the box office on its original release, as fans revisit his back catalogue following his recent blockbuster successes.

Bernthal's breakthrough year began with television roles on Netflix and Hulu before he moved into major film work in July 2026, making his Christopher Nolan debut in The Odyssey and reuniting with Tom Holland in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which has grossed over $2 billion worldwide. That run has reportedly pushed his career box office total past $3 billion and prompted renewed attention on older films such as Those Who Wish Me Dead, which Netflix has not announced plans to remove, meaning it is expected to remain available until at least the end of October 2026.
