THE FIRST SUPERHUMAN-HERO... FROM NEW JERSEY!

They remade this movie recently with Peter Dinklage and Kevin Bacon but they refuse to actually release it for some reason: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt1633359/

Like... It's actually finished? There is a full Toxic Avenger remake, with Kevin fucking Bacon in it, just... Sitting around?

Yep. They showed it at a film festival a year ago.

I am desperately awaiting it. But it seems it's producer and distributor issues.

It's infuriating lol. One of the rare remakes I am looking forward to, and this happens
