Hmm, so it seems that one of the blokes from Nick's favourite TV show is becoming the latest actor to play potentially the most feebly portrayed of all Marvel Superheroes...
Ray Steven who is THIS person...
...who played Titus Pullo in the Beeb series Rome and is going to become the third bloke to play The Punisher.
Now I'm proud to have never seen the quite, quite naff Dolph Lundgren version and didn't actually mind the 2004 version.
The problem was he was a bit... nice and I fear this movie will probably go the same route, you see filmgoers, especially American filmgoers like their goodies and baddies to be well defined.
Now The Punisher doesn't really fit that, although he does good things he is, I think it's fair to say, a bastard - in fact a torturing, kidnapping, murdering little bastard.
I get the feeling that wouldn't suit Hollywood though...
