Featuring Writer & Director Macon Blair, Troma Co-Founder Lloyd Kaufman, alongside stars Peter Dinklage, Elijah Wood, Jacob Tremblay and Taylour Paige
LOS ANGELES, July 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Cineverse (Nasdaq: CNVS), a next-generation entertainment studio, has announced today an unforgettable panel taking place on Thursday, July 24, 2025 from 5:30PM – 6:30PM at San Diego Comic-Con in support of The Toxic Avenger. Before it hits theaters on August 29, 2025, writer & director Macon Blair (I Don’t Feel At Home in This World Anymore, writer for Marvel Comics/Dark Horse Comics), iconic Troma co-founder Lloyd Kaufman, and an all-star cast including Peter Dinklage (“Game of Thrones”), Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings franchise), Jacob Tremblay (Room, Wonder), and Taylour Paige (Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, Zola) will come together for a toxic takeover.
Get ready for mayhem, mutants, and mop justice! Taking place in Hall H, the panel will feature exclusive clips from the film, limited-edition swag for attendees and behind-the-scenes chaos with the cast and creators.
Based on Lloyd Kaufman’s original 1984 horror/comedy, 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 is distributed by Cineverse, produced by Legendary Entertainment.
