The Toxic Avenger remake unleashes the carnage with gory new red band trailer

June 21, 2025 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its theatrical release this August, Troma Entertainment has shared a new red band trailer for Macon Blair’s remake of Lloyd Kaufman’s cult classic superhero comedy The Toxic Avenger which stars Peter Dinklage in the title role as downtrodden janitor who is turned in a mutant vigilante following a horrible accident, becoming the hero we need right now.

Along with Peter Dinklage as Toxie, the film also stars Kevin Bacon, Elijah Wood, Jacob Tremblay, Julia Davis, and Taylour Paige. Check out the trailer below…

When a downtrodden 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 arrives in cinemas on August 29th.
