Cineverse To Distribute ‘The Toxic Avenger’

The upcoming The Toxic Avenger movie has just been acquired by Cineverse for distribution. Cineverse is best known for distributing the two most recent Terrifier films, Terrifier 2 and Terrifier 3, which were great successes.

The new Toxic Avenger is set to star Peter Dinklage as Toxie, the Toxic Avenger. The film is directed by Macon Blair and first debuted at Fantastic Fest, where it earned a score of 92% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Cineverse Chief Content Officer Yolanda Macias commented on this new partnership as follows:

Teaming with Iconic over the years has been a mutually-rewarding experience both for our team and the amazing filmmakers we are showcasing. We look forward to building on the box office success of Terrifier 2 and 3 as we get ready for this release. As we have seen since announcing that Toxic is coming back to theaters, this gnarly action comedy franchise has incredibly passionate fans; we can’t wait until Labor Day Weekend.

In addition to Dinklage, the cast of The Toxic Avenger also includes Kevin Bacon, Elijah Wood, Jacob Tremblay, Julia Davis, and Taylour Paige. It will be exciting to see the modern day adaptation of this 1984 classic.
