The film's 98 minute work-print version features a prologue written by writer/producer Robert Mark Kamen that was cut to shreds and used as flashbacks as intended originally in Boaz Yakin's original script which showed Frank Castle's backstory and his pursuit of Gianni Franco, leading to his wife and daughters being killed and Castle barely surviving and becoming The Punisher. It also established the relationship between him and Jake as partners, and featured a lot more violence and a different ending in which a lot of this material was forced upon to be cut by the MPAA. Director Mark Goldblatt was dismayed with their decision.
