... or Splinter cell.

quote:

After being asked about some of the superhero films being developed by Warner Bros., Hardy had a very straightforward reply. Let him put a skull on his chest and shoot people, damn it:

"I want The Punisher… I want The Punisher, or Splinter Cell, I want something…I don’t know what I want."


But then...

quote:

Of course, Hardy immediately follows this by laughing and suggesting that, at 5’9”, he’s too short to play The Punisher, but it’s obviously a feint meant to throw other actors off his pursuit of the role.


:(

Hardy is only 5'9? Damn. Thought he was like 6'2 or something; anyways, let him play Wolverine. I actually like Jackman as Wolverine, but Hardy would be a fantastic one. Let Hugh Jackman go to the Punisher, it'd be perfect.

I still think the best Punisher would be Tom Jane again. If not though, Jim Caviezel has more than shown he can do it through his character on Person of Interest.

I think War Zone is awesome, it reminds me of an 80s action movie - in the worst and best ways, but Marvel studios isn't going to showcase a character that resorts people to red goo. He just wouldn't mesh well with the rest of the CU, and the Winter Soldier pretty much has the cold killing machine thing on lock down.

Though he's a great actor and terribly handsome, Hardy is talking out of his arse.

That he wants to play this character makes me sad for him.

He's already done better than a Punisher movie with Bronson. I'd rather he moved on and did something that better utilized his ability to act.
