The Toxic Avenger poster and images unveil Peter Dinklage's Toxie.

      After remaining on the shelf for nearly two years since its debut at Fantastic Fest in 2023, Macon Blair's remake of Troma’s cult 80s superhero comedy, The Toxic Avenger, has finally been picked up for distribution by Cineverse, who has now released a new poster and images showcasing Peter Dinklage’s mild-mannered janitor in full Toxie form.

      “A startling incident turns the beleaguered janitor Winston Gooze (Dinklage) into a mutant vigilante. With his trusty mop in hand, this unlikely hero faces off against freaks, gangsters, and corrupt CEOs while striving to maintain his relationship with his son. The narrative captures the subversive, quirky spirit of the original Toxic Avenger while offering a modern, fresh take.”

      Alongside Peter Dinklage, the cast includes Jacob Tremblay, Taylour Paige, Julia Davis, Jonny Coyne, Elijah Wood, and Kevin Bacon. The Toxic Avenger is set to hit theaters on August 29th.
