Samaritan Synopsis
"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, 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, Moises Aria. Directed By Julius Avery."

You know, if there was one actor I would want in a role like this, it would indeed be Stallone. After watching what he did with Rocky Balboa these last few outings, he will bring the right amount of levity to this role. Now, will the film be any good? That trailer feels a little promising but a little heavy-handed as well. Samaritan will release on Prime Video on August 26th.
