The Toxic Avenger Reboot Finally Gets Release Date and Teaser Poster!
Legendary Pictures and Troma Entertainment’s pitch is simple: Ever been the butt of all jokes? Pushed around and insulted? Pantsed in the hallway, or tripped in class? There’s a solution to these problems… nuclear waste! Just fall into a barrel and become superhuman, like gym janitor Melvin Junko did in the ’84 superhero spoof The Toxic Avenger. So long as appearances, money, stability, romance, and friends don’t matter, life post-nuclear-waste-soaking is undoubtedly an upgrade! Just ask fellow modern-day janitor Wintson Gooze (Peter Dinklage), the franchise’s next victim (hero?) in the film series’ upcoming reboot, faithfully named The Toxic Avenger.
