Thomas Jane who donned the trench coat and the skull T-shirt as revenge-driven vigilante Frank Castle in 2004’s The Punisher, had made his debut in a Telugu film, Padamati Sandhya Ragam. The movie which was released in 1986 starred Vijayashanti in the lead role. Thank heavens; it wasn’t one of her butt-kicking action movies. East meets west cultural differences formed the crux of Padamati Sandhya Ragam.Thomas Jane went on to take up leading and supporting roles in many TV series and movies. Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Face/Off, Boogie Nights, The Thin Red Line, Deep Blue Sea, Magnolia, Original Sin, Dreamcatcher and The Punisher are some of his noted flicks.
In The Punisher, FBI agent and ex-Delta Force operative Frank Castle turns into a vigilante to avenge the death of his family. Jane played the role of the titular character who declares a one-man war on the mob which brutally wiped off every member of his family. The Punisher is the property of Marvel Comics and is one of the most admired comic book heroes primarily due to his troubled past and his agenda to adopt violent ways to ensure that justice is served.
