Vertical Entertainment recently acquired the U.S. distribution rights to Henchmen, a new animated feature from writer and director Adam Wood. With a star-studded cast that includes Thomas Middleditch, James Marsden, Rosario Dawson, Alfred Molina, Nathan Fillion, and Craig Robinson, this should definitely be worth checking out on VOD/Digital on October 9th.

Based on a story by Jay D. Waxman and Adam Wood, Henchmen is set in a world of super-villains, evil schemes and global domination - but someone has to take out the trash. Welcome to the world of Henchmen, third class.

When Lester (Middleditch), a fresh-faced recruit, joins the Union of Evil, he is assigned to a motley crew of blue-collar workers led by fallen henchmen Hank. But when Lester accidentally steals a super villain's ultimate weapon, Hank must break his risk-nothing code to save the boy he's befriended, even if it means becoming the one thing he has always avoided: a hero.

Superhero movies have sadly been few and far between this year, so this animated adventure should be a breath of fresh air, and the trailer points to it being a funny, action-packed adventure. 

That A-List cast is also impossible to ignore, and there are plenty of comic book movie veterans involved. 

Check out the Henchmen trailer and poster below:

@Blergh - It looks like a CG animated film from 2005. Is it possible they started making this movie ten years ago, ran out of money, and shelved it until recently?

@CaptainMexico -

Just double-checked my torrent site, and this was uploaded May of 2019, with a release date labeled as 2018. It was English, so I'm not really sure what this current release is all about 🤷🏻‍♂️

@SKetCH - it’s alight from what I remember...he straight up gets lex luthors suit. But ya the animation is a grade down but the studio probably didn’t have 100 mill to blow on it. Cool idea for a CG kids movie. I’m not hatin on it.

Lol what a terrible trailer. Also I think the term “A list” is being used pretty loosely
