EXCLUSIVE: Ray Stevenson to Direct Punisher 3?

Source:  MovieWeb.com
Punisher 3Punisher: War Zone is an amazing movie to behold. Its as violent as last January's Rambo and possibly the funniest comic book adaptation to hit the screen in sometime. It's sure to be a cult hit, and serves as an awesome ode to 80s action extravaganzas. It's such an excellent film; it's going to be hard to top it with a sequel. While chatting with director Lexi Alexander yesterday, we asked her how she was planning to out do herself and if a Punisher: War Zone 2 was on the way.

In no short order, she explained that she wasn't intent on coming back for a sequel, and if a third film does happens, she won't be attached. Then she told us that she wants Ray Stevenson, the man that plays Frank Castle in Punisher: War Zone, to come back and direct a third film. She says that he is very open to it, and that is the direction she is pushing the franchise. She doesn't believe that anybody else but him will be able to make a film that is on par with what is coming to theaters this Friday.

To hear the entire conversation, stay tuned for our exclusive one-on-one video interviews with both Lexi and Ray, which should be up soon. Punisher: War Zone opens December 12th, 2008.

I still have yet to see Punisher 2, so I can't say if a part 3 is a good idea, much less have HIM direct it. Personally, based off what I know, which is nothing, I so think a Punisher 3 is a good idea, just as long as Stevenson doesn't direct it.

isn't this movie another reboot? why they're saying a "third film"
by the way, given the review on this site and more importantly the reason that it's so great have confirmed all the bad expectations i had.
Thomas Jane i guess will be the only Punisher worthy. No wonder why he didn't came back, i think he saw a movie like this was too silly and cheesy for the character

No offense taken killerman, some like him some don't. I will give this one a shot though and who knows, I may like Stevenson better. I just have not seen him in anything that I remember.

I liked 04's Punisher however this looks cheesy like others said. So uhm, I will leave it open minded for now, but I think MW likes this flick to much for it to be true.
