Artisan Entertainment and Lionsgate attempted to reboot the film series in 2004 with The Punisher, and again with 2008's Punisher: War Zone. Story line Based on the Marvel Comic, Dolph Lundgren is Frank Castle an ex-cop who lives in the sewers and acts as judge, jury, and executioner to the city's criminals in retaliation for the unpunished murders of his wife and kids.
