First Official Look At Peter Serafinowicz As THE TICK In Amazon's Reboot Of The Superhero Comedy
Amazon has released some stills and a first poster for the upcoming reboot of The Tick, which will star Guardians of the Galaxy actor/comedian Peter Serafinowicz in the title role. Click on to take a look.
Amazon has officially announced that the premiere date for their take on The Tick will be August 19, and they've also released a few images from the show, giving us a first look at Peter Serafinowicz as the do-gooder of the title.
Fans were not best pleased when they found out Patrick Warburton wouldn't be returning after doing such a great job as Fox's short-lived take on the beloved character, but Serafinowicz has become quite the geek-icon in his own right so there shouldn't be too many complaints.
We also have an updated synopsis which you can check out below.
