Fanboys the world over (at least those who follow the development of comics to feature films and the subsequent sequels that serve to essentially reboot the franchise a mere three years after the original failed somewhat miserably creatively but at least made enough box office bank to merit a sequel) were under the impression that the upcoming PUNISHER sequel would be subtitled WELCOME BACK, FRANK. However, the folks over at IGN recently took a peek at Lionsgate’s publicity site and noticed that the film was named PUNISHER: WAR ZONE so unless the site’s webmaster forgot to read a memo, we can assume the film’s title has been changed. This time around, revenge-fueled Frank Castle, regenerated as former centurion Ray Stevenson, uses all his retributory rage to take down a boss of the criminal underworld in New York. No release date’s scheduled as yet but one should be announced sometime soon.
