Thomas Jane to do voice for Punisher Game

Team Xbox--

THQ announced today that Thomas Jane, star of " The Punisher" movie, will continue his search for ultimate retribution by lending his voice to The Punisher videogame, coming to the Microsoft Xbox and Sony PlayStation 2 in January 2005. The company announced a PC version is being developed in tandem with the console products and is scheduled to launch simultaneously.

Mr. Jane has appeared in films such as " The Thin Red Line" and " Boogie Nights," as well as this summer' s critically acclaimed " Stander." He brings a unique perspective to a character with an equally unique style of street justice. While Mr. Jane will contribute his voice, the character model will be based on Volition Inc.' s interpretation of the classic Punisher character.


" Thomas Jane' s contribution to the game reinforces our goal to incorporate the best of everything Punisher," said Dan Cermak, vice president of product development, Volition Inc. " He will help ensure the game rips Frank Castle from the pages of Marvel and brings him to life."

The Punisher, developed by THQ' s internal developer Volition Inc, will feature Marvel' s darkest antihero Frank Castle as he takes on his greatest enemies from a history that spans over 30 years.


-The game will be released later this year.
