For better or worse, the next entry in the Eraser franchise (bet you didn’t know there was a franchise?) is ready to hit home video and digital in June courtesy of Warner Bros Home Video. Titled Eraser: Reborn, the film stars the next generation with Dominic Sherwood taking over for Arnold Schwarzenegger who starred in the original.

New box cover art and details are available below so if you’re keen, check it out.

Official Synopsis: U.S. Marshal Mason Pollard specializes in “erasing” people – faking the deaths of high-risk witnesses. With the technological advances of the last 25 years, the game has upgraded, and it’s just another day at the office when he’s assigned to Rina Kimura, a crime boss’ wife who’s decided to turn state’s evidence. As the two flee to Cape Town, South Africa, with a team of merciless assassins on their trail, Pollard discovers he’s been set up. Double-crossed and fueled by adrenaline, he needs to be at the top of his game, or he’ll be the one who’s erased. Permanently.

This appears to just be a DTV follow up to the original that isn’t connected as Sherwood is playing a completely different character. There hasn’t been any footage or trailer released yet but once again, I’ll hold off on my opinion until I see some.

Sherwood stars along with Jacky Lai (V-Wars) as Rina Kimura, McKinley Belcher III (Marriage Story) as Paul Whitlock, Pollard’s mentor, and Eddie Ramos (Animal Kingdom) as Sugar Jax, who is a local gangster.

The film was helmed by John Pogue who is best known for Deep Blue Sea 3. Michael D. Weiss penned the script.

Sheerwood has been featured in Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments and Penny Dreadful: City of Angels so he’s got credits under his belt but only time will tell his he handles the action.

Unfortunately, most people condemn these films before they even see any footage. Per usual, I will hold off judgment until I see it. Personally, it sounds sort of cool so I’ll check it out.

Special features for the release include:

The Warrior and the Witness: The Making Eraser: Reborn – Go behind the scenes on set in Capetown, South Africa for an all-access look at the fast-paced filmmaking approach used to capture the action-packed tale of a witness on the run and the agent tasked with keeping her alive. Includes Interviews with the filmmakers, cast and crew.

The film will hit the shelves on June 7th.

Expect a trailer to drop soon so keep it locked and loaded right here for more to follow as we are your destination for everything action in 2022 and beyond!
