Primetime Emmy-winning actor Peter Dinklage stars as the Toxic Avenger in director Macon Blair’s UNRATED movie, a fresh take on the cult classic franchise from Troma.
“Macon’s beautiful film is a real movie, unlike the first Toxic Avenger. It’s a work of art — and better than the original Toxic Avenger,” Troma’s Lloyd Kaufman declares to Bloody Disgusting. “Troma fans like it, as well as normal people,” he chuckles.
“The main piece of advice Lloyd gave was just to make it entertaining,” Blair adds.
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.
The Toxic Avenger is distributed by Cineverse, produced by Legendary Entertainment.
