The trailer of Samaritan focuses on a fictional city, Granite City, filled with crime and injustice. Sylvester emerges as a superhero disguised as a garbage collector. He will be seen as Joe Smith.

Things change when Sylvester as Joe steps up to save Javon Walton, who plays the role of Sam Cleary in the film. After rescuing him from a group of bullies, Sam persuades Joe to bring back the good Samaritan to the city and save its people. Sylvester fights bad guys in the trailer as the undefeatable superhero. In the end, Sam questions him, “How come you hate who you are?” “For some people it’s too late to change the damage they’ve done,” replies Sylvester referring to some dark secrets about him in the movie.

Earlier in July, Amazon Prime Video had shared the poster of Samaritan. In the poster, Sylvester appeared walking alone in an alley in the rain. Soon after it was shared, the poster instantly reminded social media users of Amitabh Bachchan.

A user wrote in the comment, “For the first 5 min, I thought he was BIG B (Amitabh) then I read Sylvester Stallone.” “I thought he was Amitabh Bachchan,” added another one. “He looks like Amitabh Bachchan,” added someone else to the comments. Samaritan will release on August 26.
