First Look At Sylvester Stallone In Prime Video’s Action Thriller SAMARITAN, Launching On August 26

By  | 

Prime video has released this first look at Sylvester Stallone’s new film SAMARITAN.

Stallone says, “I love action films that also have heart. I wanted to be involved with Samaritan because this story has many layers that I think people can relate to. It’s something of a morality tale that is also very exciting to watch. We are thrilled that this will be seen globally on Prime Video where my fans and all audiences can enjoy it together around the world.”

SAMARITAN is directed by Julius Avery who previously heled OVERLOARD and SON OF A GUN

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 years ago, Granite City’s super-powered vigilante, Samaritan, was reported dead after a fiery warehouse battle with his rival, Nemesis. Most believe Samaritan perished in the fire, but some in the city, like Sam, have hope that he is still alive. With crime on the rise and the city on the brink of chaos, Sam makes it his mission to coax his neighbor out of hiding to save the city from ruin.

Starring Sylvester Stallone, Javon “Wanna” Walton, Pilou Asbæk, Dascha Polanco, and Moises Arias, SAMARITAN will debut on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide on August 26, 2022.

Rating: PG-13 for strong violence and strong language
