Tom Jane Gives Punisher 2 Update

Source: Ain't-It-Cool-News February 13, 2005

 

 

A scooper for Ain't-It-Cool-News attended the Dallas Comic Con Convention this weekend, where Tom Jane revealed some new details on The Punisher 2.

 

The moderator asked Thomas Jane about there being rumors of a possible Punisher 2. Thomas' respone was....."Oh, is that still just a rumor?" We all perked up, Niles asked Jane if he could talk about this, and Thomas said "Why Not." Jane let the cat out of the bag and told the room that yesterday at a studio in north Dallas (he dropped the name, but I don't remember it), they filmed the teaser for Punisher 2. Tom O'Brien, the cover art model of Frank Castle for the Punisher comics who was also at the Con, was also at the shoot yesterday in full costume. Jane said that on his phone, he owns the only picture of himself and the "real" Punisher, both in full costume, standing next to each other. No word on when or where we will see this trailer though.

 

Jane said that while the script is not finished, he is working closely with the team. He said that he is doing EVERYTHING he can do to get the setting moved to the borroughs of New York and that Jigsaw is "more than likely" going to be the villian in the movie.

Hell f***in yeah..

 

Punisher is one of my favorite movies, cant WAIT to see the 2nd

never saw it how many stars you give it

never saw it how many stars you give it

 

Definitely better than the old Dolph Lundgren one ::shudder::

 

It was nice that they stayed true for the most part to the Garth Ennis story for when he was writing Punisher.

 

IMDB gives it a 6.2/10 which is what I'd give it about. As a huge fan of the comic the Punisher, I liked the movie a lot. It left me lacking a little bit but it was a solid film.

Punisher kicked so much ass... it was awesome, I loved it

Glad they are making a sequel. I really enjoyed the first movie.

I really liked it, but hen again I liked the old Dolph Lundgren one too, apart from the casting of him in it. I've been playing the video game lately, pretty fun.

The funny story behind that Lundgren Punisher crapfest was that it was only turned into a Punisher film in post-production. They shot all teh principle photography and his character's name wasn'r even right. Then Marvel threatened a lawsuite because the vigelante character was essentiallt their Punisher character. A compromise was reached and they reshot and voiced over some spots to call him Frank a couple of times and voila' - a Punisher movie.

 

That explaines the lack of the cool costume in that one - or of any supporting cast members that could be traced to Marvel Universe origins.

 

Remember this was long before Hollywood had the current string of Marvel Universe blockusters. See for example, the barely released Fantastic Four movie from that time where Ben Grimm's costume was essentially a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle costume that had been painted and rock-a-fied. I had the misfortune of seeing that film and it was abysmal.

Awesome! That movie rocked! Brian just finished the game and said the game was worth the cash it cost. He said the game followed the movie fairly closely.
