Movie Preview | The Punisher
Written by: Katherine Brodsky

Studio: Artisan Entertainment 

Synopsis: The Punisher will be based on the popular Marvel comic series of the same name. The Punisher tells the story of FBI undercover agent, Frank Castle, who until now has beat considerable odds. A former Special Forces operative, he is finally moving out of the field and into a desk job – and a normal life with his wife and son. Then Castle’s world is shaken to its core by a nightmare he has longed feared: his family is executed as a repercussion from his final undercover assignment. With unparalleled intensity, ferocious intelligence and fearless actions, Castle seeks to punish the murderers – and finds the one thing he least expected: redemption. The film is being produced by Marvel’s Avi Arad (Spider-Man, X-Men, Daredevil, The Hulk) and producer Gale Anne Hurd (The Hulk, Aliens, The Terminator). Principal photography will commence in early July 2003 and the film is scheduled to hit theaters in summer 2004.

Cast: It has been announced recently that John Travolta has signed to play the villain, starring opposite Thomas Jane, who will play the title-character. Travolta will play Howard Saint, a man involved in the criminal underworld who has managed to conceal his violent beginnings and become a paragon of society until a darker, vengeful  side emerges after his son is brutally slain.

Trailer: The trailer will hit theaters June 20 and will be attached to The Hulk. The trailer will also appear on ModaMag.com on the same date.

Release Date: Summer of 2004
