Actor Thomas Jane has dropped out of the upcoming sequel to The Punisher, claiming the decision was “heartbreaking”.
38-year-old Jane cited a weak script for the cause of his quitting the film.
Jane reveals, “I can’t tell you how completely broken up I am about it.”
“After busting my ass at the gym four days a week for almost two years, watching every character driven action pic that any fan would ask me to watch while I was standing in line buying egg whites and Tuna fish after countless Saturday nights making notes and drinking soda water and munching on seaweed sticks…
“I am sadly - no, make that heartbrokenly, f**k it, just rip out the heart and stomp it into the pavement a couple of times - pulling out.
“Punisher fans are already fighting an uphill battle as it is. And I’ve always felt a responsibility to fight that fight for them and with them so that Frank Castle gets the treatment he deserves.
“What I won’t do is spend months of my life sweating over a movie that I just don’t believe in.”
Now, come on, what was really the reason, Thomas? I’m rather doubtful that Mr. Jane has that many problems with principalities….

February 8th, 2009 at 7:35 pmI think the first movie was awesome.. And after reading reviews on the second movie, aswell as watching the trailers.. I believe Jane was right not to take the part. The first movie was made with a $50mil budget.. That is F**k all for an action movie. And it still rocked. I.. As a Marvel and Punisher fan.. Will not be seeing this movie, and believe that they should re-think what they have done.
