Anderson Schultz

Anderson Schultz is the main antagonist of the second season of the TV series The Punisher. He is the corrupt and ruthless co-leader and CEO of Testament Industries who seeks to have Frank Castle killed and then to rule the entire world, as he believes that god created him for that purpose.

History
He hires John Pilgrim to find and assasinate Frank Castle, aka The Punisher, and Amy Bendix so he could keep his illegal operations a secret.

He told Pilgrim that he will watch over his kids, as he goes to asassinate Frank. He also sends his wife, Eliza to take care of his wife, Rebecca Pilgrim. As John Pilgrim is failing to kill Frank and Amy, he reminds John that he is about to recieve a home from him. Later, he discusses issues with his son David, who questions him and asks him when they will talk about his own life instead of strategy and killing others. However, an ambitious and slightly angered father replies that god wants only him to live among the entire world, and him to serve all the justice.

After John brings him Amy as a captive so she can be killed later on, he decides with Eliza to betray John and claim the kids for himself. He later recieves a call from Frank, who kidnapped his only child. He passes the phone to Eliza, who gets shocked from her son been kidnapped and asks John, who still doesn't know the truth, to kill Castle, as part of Anderson's plans. John later goes to hunt Frank down, but sets Amy free as he and Anderson have promised. John asks where David Schultz is, but finds out that David is dead, thus leading him into a rough battle with Frank.

Castle manages to defeat John and knock him down. John is heavily injured and he begs Frank not to kill his kids, redeeming himself and calling him the whirlwind, as he presumably dies a moment later. Anderson and Eliza later discuss matters about John, as Anderson implies that he was useful and he should get paid, and Eliza replies that he shouldn't recieve anything in return for his duty. Amy however interrupts their argument as she points at them a gun. He threatens Amy not to kill Eliza, but Frank pulls the trigger instead, and reveals to Amy that Anderson was behind a plan for their assasination, and a scheme to take over the world because god made him the supreme being. Frank gives him the bullet and tells him that if he doesn't shoot himself in the head, his plans will be revealed and other people will want to kill him instead for his crimes. Anderson chooses to end his misery at that point.

pERSONALITY
