Superhero cinema has never been more popular, and every studio across the board is in a frenzy. Wednesday, Prime Video released the trailer for Sylvester Stallone Samaritana feature film where he plays a retired superhero trying to hide him from the public eye.
The movie is directed by Overlord helmer Julius Avery based on text from a panel of writers including Bragi F. Schut, Mark L. Smith, Zak Penn and Chuck MacLean
“We didn’t really have superheroes” Samaritan Director Julius Avery explained his upbringing in the 1980s. “We only had action heroes. And Sly was the closest thing we had to a superhero. So, if we put him in a superhero movie? That sounds fresh and cool and something people will love.”
“This is a big event movie – we see our heroes kick ass,” he added. “We’re going to see Sly do things he hasn’t done in a long time, and in a really creative way. He’s 73! I’m amazed at how much he’s already doing. I’m telling you, more guys in their twenties won’t be able to do what Sly does in this movie” .
Join Stallone in Samaritan They are Javon “I want” Walton, Bello Aspic, Martin Star, Moises Arias, and Dasha Polanco.
A Prime synopsis of the movie can be found below.
Thirteen-year-old Sam Cleary (Javon “Wanna” Walton) suspects that his mysterious and reclusive neighbor Mr. Smith (Sylvester Stallone) is actually a legend hiding in plain sight. Twenty-five years ago, it was reported that Samaritan, an experienced ranger in Granite City, had died after a fiery warehouse battle with his rival Nemesis. Most believe the Samaritan died in the fire, but some in the city, like Sam, hope he is still alive. With crime increasing and the city on the brink of chaos, Sam makes it his mission to convince his neighbor to come out of hiding to save the city from ruin.
