We hear there’s another superhero movie coming out this Summer. But this Avenger is the hero we really need now. Primetime Emmy-winning actor Peter Dinklage stars as Toxie.
When janitor Winston Gooze is exposed to a catastrophic toxic accident, he’s transformed into a new kind of hero: The Toxic Avenger. Now, Toxie must rise from outcast to savior, taking on ruthless corporate overlords and corrupt forces who threaten his son, his friends, and his community. In a world where greed runs rampant… justice is best served radioactive.
Kevin Bacon (They/Them, Hollow Man), Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings), Jacob Tremblay (Room, Wonder) and Taylour Paige (Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, Zola) also star.
