Coming off from the critical success of Ma Rainey’s Black BottomDeadline brings rising actress Taylour Paige has been tapped to star as the female lead opposite Peter Dinklage in Legendary’s upcoming Toxic Avenger reboot. This new casting addition comes after nearly a month since Jacob Tremblay (RoomGood Boys) was confirmed as the first actor to join Dinklage in the project.
