The DVD cover for co-writer-director Adam Egypt Mortimer’s action thriller, ‘Archenemy,’ which stars Joe Manganiello.

Sometimes it takes a driven and persistent young adult who’s determined to capture their own fame and celebrated triumphs to help an older, more experienced person realize that their supposed long-gone glory days don’t have to have disappeared for good. That’s certainly the case for Skylan Brooks and Joe Manganiello’s distinctive characters in the new superhero drama, ‘Archenemy.’ The two unique anti-heroes have their own particular unexplored dimensions that differentiate them from the typical protagonist in the superhero genre, but they still work well together to achieve their own forms of prestige.

The action movie was written and directed by genre scribe-helmer, Adam Egypt Mortimer. RLJE Films will distribute the thriller on Tuesday, February 16 on DVD and Blu-ray, for an SRP of $27.97 and $28.96, respectively. The disc release will include the bonus feature, ‘The Making of ‘Archenemy.’

‘Archenemy’ follows Max Fist (Manganiello) as he claims to be a hero from another dimension who fell through time and space to Earth, where he has no powers. No one believes his stories except for local teen reporter, Hamster (Brooks). Together, they take to the streets to wipe out the local drug syndicate and its vicious crime boss known as The Manager, who Hamster’s sister, Indigo (Zolee Griggs), is working for as a drug dealer.
