Who Should Direct A New Thomas Jane Punisher Film?


After the premiere of Thomas Jane's short film Dirty Laundry, I think some people's interest in doing another Punisher movie or possibly a television series have been peaked a little. It is not likely to happen (unless tons of people campaign for it), but I am sure many Punisher fans would be very pleased.

That said, one of the biggest problems Punisher movies have had are not so much the actors, but the people attached to direct, write and make the movies. Thomas Jane's movie had a lethargic pace and flat story development, while Punisher Warzone suffered from terrible dialogue and a cartoony tone that took away the serious edge of The Punisher.

So now I must ask, WHO WOULD BE THE BEST PEOPLE TO HELP WRITE AND DIRECT A GOOD PUNISHER FILM? It is clear Thomas Jane would love to do another one, so if he had a good team to back him up it may have a chance of being worthwhile.

Tony Scott (Man On Fire)

John Hensley, he did an excellent job with Punisher (2004 version) anybody other than Spike Lee

The Punisher should be like Sin City, so Robert Rodriguez probably

Nicolas Winding Refn or Christopher Nolan

Nicolas Winding Refn had a huge miss with Only God Forgives. Nolan is busy with interstellar

Duncan Jones or Rian Johnson

Wow dude are you being serious?

You realize this isnt ever going to happen right? This is just a topic where we say who we think would be a good punisher director. So the fact that Nolan is busy with his film does not pertain to this topic. Hell man Thomas Jane is busy with *beep* for like the next two years, and has his own film in development, so whats the point of posting your choices?

Btw Refn would make an amazing Punisher film, doesnt matter that critics are split on OGF, some People/critics still like it, and he has made amazing films
