The universe’s most cynical hero is back, but this time, he is not the only one breaking the rules. Howard the Duck 2: Duckworld Rising blasts open the multiverse, reuniting the sarcastic Howard with his Earth-bound allies. However, it is Beverly Switzler (Lea Thompson) who truly commands the screen in a stunning evolution of rock and roll rebellion and intergalactic badassery.
Lea Thompson returns, radiating ageless charisma, sharp wit, and gritty determination. No longer just the struggling artist or the damsel in distress, Beverly has completely transformed into a leather-clad, guitar-wielding warrior of the intergalactic resistance. She effortlessly proves that true star power only gets more dangerous with time. Whether she is shredding a killer solo onstage or shredding alien invaders with a powerful plasma blaster, Beverly is the unpredictable force the galaxy desperately needs. Beside her, Phil Blumburtt (Tim Robbins) has also evolved. He transitions from a perpetually nerdy scientist into a tech-savvy mastermind, providing the cutting-edge firepower and strategic genius needed to save two radically different worlds.
But the stakes have never been higher, or more bizarre. The dreaded Dark Overlords have found a horrifying way to merge Earth with Howard’s homeworld, Duckworld, creating a single, chaotic, hybrid dimension where bizarre physics and extraterrestrial threats lurk on every corner. As reality itself begins to warp and crumble under the pressure of this cosmic collision, it is up to the original trio, Howard, Beverly, and Phil, to stop the madness before everything they know is irrevocably destroyed.
Fueled by a deep love of 80s nostalgia, biting social satire, and explosive, high-octane sci-fi action, Howard the Duck 2 is a wild, feathered, and unforgettable ride. In a universe gone completely mad, style is the ultimate weapon, and Beverly Switzler is more than ready to show the galaxy that she is tougher and more mesmerizing than any alien threat they can throw at her. This sequel promises more comedy, more action, and more feathered fury than ever before.
