Punisher 2 WarZone Gets a Release Date

Posted by: Scott

Punisher 2 will hit theatres Sept 12th 2008 according to LionsGate who emailed today to let us know. 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. I’ve always loved the Marvel guys, and wish them well. Meanwhile, I’ll continue to search for a film that one day might stand with all those films that the fans have asked me to watch.

Since then Ray Stevenson has been cast as the Punisher and a little birdie tells me we will have photos of him on Friday for your viewing pleasure!
