Following the announcement of development on the project in November with Game of Thrones alum Peter Dinklage set to star in the titular role, Legendary’s The Toxic Avenger reboot is expanding its cast with the addition of Jacob Tremblay (Good Boys), according to Deadline.
Original directing-producing duo Lloyd Kaufman and Michael Herz are set to produce the reboot for Troma Entertainment while Alex Garcia and Jay Ashenfelter will oversee development for Legendary.
The Toxic Avenger becomes the latest upcoming feature project for Dinklage after recently signing on to star in the Searchlight Pictures psychological thriller Keith, as well as Blair’s other in-development comedy Brothers, in which he’ll star alongside Josh Brolin (Avengers: Endgame), and the action adventure Good Bad & Undead in which he’s in talks to star alongside fellow GoT alum Jason Momoa, the latter two of which are also set at Legendary Entertainment.
Blair is also known for his acting work in Blue Ruin, Green Room, Murder Party, Gold, Logan Lucky, American Woman and Netflix’s horror drama Hold the Dark.
