Cineverse and Liquid Death are joining up to battle evil and sugary soda with a new PSA for The Toxic Avenger. The PSA features Peter Dinklage playing Toxie and talking about the dangers of high-sugar soda.
Make sure to grab tickets for The Toxic Avenger UNRATED now!
Liquid Death – whose soda-flavored sparkling waters are available at Amazon, Target, Walmart, Whole Foods, Ralphs, and more, with each can containing just 10 calories, 2 grams of sugar, and no artificial sweeteners – This marks Liquid Death’s first partnership with a superhero who’s literally made of toxic waste.
The anti-hero janitor turned superhero may have fallen into a vat of toxic chemicals, but he knows that the amount of sugar packed into traditional sodas is bad news. In this new spot, Peter Dinklage’s Winston Gooze crashes high school hallways and educates kids on the dangers of sugary soda.
The non-rated horror/comedy movie, written and directed by Macon Blair (I Don’t Feel At Home in This World Anymore, writer for Marvel Comics/Dark Horse Comics), is produced by Legendary Entertainment and distributed by Cineverse. Based on Troma Entertainment President and Co-founder Lloyd Kaufman’s “THE TOXIC AVENGER” franchise, which first debuted four decades ago, the new film features an all-star cast including Dinklage, Kevin Bacon (Footloose, Hollow Man), Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings franchise), Jacob Tremblay (Room, Wonder), and Taylour Paige (Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, Zola).
When a downtrodden janitor, Winston Gooze (Dinklage), 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.
Check out The Toxic Avenger in theaters on August 29th, 2025.
