Netflix has tonight dropped the trailer for one of the most anticipated 2021 releases on the platform. Thunder Force is a brand new, original super hero property from the mind of writer/director Ben Falcone. The unconventional comic book comedy stars Melissa McCarthy and Octavia Spencer and looks set to poke some serious fun at the genre.
We guarantee you’ll be hooked from the opening bars of Seal’s “Kiss From A Rose” which featured on the soundtrack to 1995’s Batman Forever. The trailer is packed full of the kind of comedy we’ve come to expect from Falcone and McCarthy.
A brief longline for the film reads:
In a world where supervillains are commonplace, two estranged childhood best friends reunite after one devises a treatment that gives them powers to protect their city.
Watch the trailer in the player below:
Directed and written by Ben Falcone (The Boss, Life of the Party), Thunder Force stars Melissa McCarthy and Octavia Spencer as its superpowered leads, as well as Jason Bateman, Bobby Cannavale, Pom Klementieff, Melissa Leo, Tyrel Jackson Williams
