Just got this in my email today from the PR firm working with Artisan on The Punisher:
Laura Harring and Rebecca Romijn-Stamos are joining the cast of Artisan Entertainment/Marvel Studios' "The Punisher" for director Jonathan Hensleigh.
"Mulholland Drive" star Laura Harring is set to play the ruthless, vengeful wife of the film's evil Howard Saint (John Travolta).
"X2: X-Men United" star Rebecca Romijn-Stamos is in negotiations to play Joan, the Punisher's neighbor who lives by herself and is unaware of his alter ego. A classy and reserved woman, Joan has had her own share of hardship and feels safe and comfortable being around the man who lives next door.
In addition to two beautiful women joining the cast, we've got news the Thomas Jane has been training with four Navy SEALs and working out twice a day for the film. About the realistic fight scenes, Thomas Jane said, "all old-school stuff. What would you really do to take these guys out? What it usually comes down to is, you poke their eyes out, you slit their throat, break their nose, brutal stuff. that kind of ends the fight kind of quickly. that's why you don't see it too much. No wires, no Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon stuff. It's all going to be real world." Wow.
You can download the teaser trailer and enter a sweepstakes for some Punisher merchandise on the Jurassic Punk (http://www.jurassicpunk.com/movies/thepunisher.shtml) (a movie trailers site, run by your humble CG servant).
