Which movie franchise had the fastest reboot, where both the original and the reboot were shot in the US?
Out of all US movie franchises (e.g. Superman, Batman, X-men, etc.), which one had a reboot done after the least amount of time? To specify what a "reboot" is, I'll quote another related post:
To clarify, the term reboot in this question refers to a movie that:
- differs from the previously existing canon in a significant way, and
- starts over a continued story of some sort, so more than just one isolated movie.
That's how I would distinguish it from a remake, even though I doubt that this is a definition everyone agrees with.

Answer 2
How about the Punisher movies? 2004 and 2008. The second one was intended as a sequel but ended up being a reboot. Also, there was a 1989 Punisher movie, but I'm not sure it counts. If it does, there are 2 reboots in 19 years.
