Coming off of the billion-dollar box office of The Super Mario Bros. Movie, and with the first Five Nights at Freddy’s movie set to possibly crush other upcoming horror movies with its Halloween release, audiences are arguably living amidst a golden age for video game adaptations. That assumption will seemingly be bolstered by the impending release of Peacock’s vehicle-centric action-comedy Twisted Metal, with MCU star Anthony Mackie heading things up. Though fans probably shouldn’t expect to see him showing off Captain America-esque levels of badass heroism as John Doe, as proven by the new footage seen below, which has everyone’s favorite ice cream truck driver, Sweet Tooth, opening up an ice cream bucket of whoop-ass.
Along with the new footage, Peacock unveiled a batch of new imagery for Twisted Metal as the streaming service revs up the promotional push for the anticipated new show. But before we get to some of the other co-stars such as Samantha Beatrix, Thomas Haden Church, and WWE’s Samoa Joe, check out the clip below, which showcases the most amusing use of Sisqo’s “Thong Song” since Legends of Tomorrow brought him into its Season 5 finale.
