Peter Dinklage (
Game of Thrones) snagged the lead in Legendary’s upcoming reboot of Troma’s cult classic
The Toxic Avenger. Macon Blair will write and direct with Troma’s Lloyd Kaufman and Michael Herz producing.
And recently, Kaufman let us know the new script and it’s better than the original.
He tells us here at
Macon Blair knows Troma better than I do. He’s seen everything. He’s seen the cartoon, he’s seen the Halloween special, he’s seen everything… I’ve read the script and it’s better than the original and I leave it to him. If I’m called upon, I’d be happy to jump in. I learned on the musical to leave the creative to the creative. I learned to let them ask so if they want me, I’m there.
