MOVIEWEB VIDEO OF THE DAY
In a world where superheroes have flown among us for decades, an underdog accountant named Arthur (Griffin Newman) with zero powers comes to realize his city is owned by a global super villain long-thought dead (‘The Terror’, played by Jackie Earle Haley.) As he struggles to uncover this conspiracy, Arthur falls in league with a strange blue superhero: The Tick (Serafinowicz). The title character offers fusillade of non-sequiturs and idealistic pronouncements in between superpower feats and spontaneous wiggles of his antennae. He serves as both the conscience and the unchecked id of the story. Citing the call of destiny, The Tick gives Arthur a super suit with retractable wings and insists that he suit up as his sidekick. He and Arthur are the ultimate odd couple, but may just bring out the best in each other.
Peter Serafinowicz just wrapped An Ordinary Man alongside Ben Kingsley. Peter was last seen on the big screen in SPY opposite Melissa McCarthy. His other credits include Couples Retreat, the role of ‘Pete’ in Shaun of the Dead and ‘Garth Seal’ in Guardians of the Galaxy. Peter also provided the voice of Darth Maul in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace and has provided voices for South Park.
