The Toxic Avenger will soon return to the big screen with a new reboot of the 1984 movie classic from director Macon Blair. Peter Dinklage is, of course, taking over the iconic role of the Toxic Avenger in the film, and we now have a couple of first-look images of the new Toxie.

“In this bold new chapter of the classic midnight movie franchise created by Lloyd Kaufman and Troma Entertainment, a shocking accident transforms downtrodden janitor Winston Gooze into a mutant vigilante. Armed with his signature mop, the unlikely hero battles freaks, gangsters and corrupt CEOs while trying to save his relationship with his son.” Kevin Bacon, Elijah Wood, Jacob Tremblay, Julia Davis and Taylour Paige also star in this darkly funny take on the Troma anti-hero.

Blair told Entertainment Weekly of the new design: “The goal was to try to stay true to the vibe of Lloyd [Kaufman’s] original Jennifer Aspinall/Mitch Cohen creature, with some influence from the Toxic Crusaders cartoon’s look, while also trying to do something new and weird and lovable with Toxie’s design. I love what Millennium FX did with it — part human, part mutant, all heart.”

The Toxic Avenger will release in cinemas from August 29th, 2025. Check out the images below:
