Punisher 2 Gets a Cool Name!

Posted by: Michael

Hot off the heels of the news that the Punisher 2 movie would be called Punisher 2: Welcome Back Frank. we get word it gets a much better name. Punisher 2: WarZone! Much better name then the lame Welcome Back Frank. Ray Stevenson has been tapped to play Frank Castle, The Punisher in the upcoming sequel. The film is being directed by Lexi Alexander who directed Green Street Hooligans.

I am not excited at all for Punisher 2. With Thomas Jane having quit the project and the first one having sucked horribly. Thomas Jane reportedly sent a letter to AICN letting them know that he has dropped out of Punisher 2. He has lost faith in the project and feels it does not do the fans justice, so he is dropping out of the project. And no doubt burning some bridges in the way he is coming out (if the letter is legit ) Quote:

What I won't do is spend months of my life sweating over a movie that I just don't believe in. Iâ€™ve always loved the Marvel guys, and wish them well. Meanwhile, Iâ€™ll continue to search for a film that one day might stand with all those films that the fans have asked me to watch.

We will see how it progresses. The big question is where Marvel stands on the sequel, and not so much what Thomas Jane wants
