Peter Stebbings‘ newest creation, Defendor, starring Woody Harrelson and Kat Dennings has a new trailer for your viewing pleasure.  As we’ve seen before, the fun part of this film is that the superhero film about a man who has no super powers and unlike Batman, no money to afford any cool gadgets, he has to reply on lime juice and marbles. The film centers around three characters: an everyday guy, Arthur Poppington, who comes to believe he’s a superhero, his psychiatrist, and the teenager prostitute he befriends.

In a world without hope, Poppington changes into a vigilante super-hero of his own making, “Defendor” in order to save the day. The only problem is that the Defendor only has courage to work with while trying to protect the city’s innocents and he might be insane. Sounds like the perfect role for Harrelson!

When I saw these photos I literally laughed out loud. Woody Harrelson stars as the title character in the upcoming film, Defendor. It’s a dramedy that centers on a man named Arthur Poppington (Harrelson) who decides to become a superhero to help those in need. He duct tapes the letter D across his chest and attempts to fight crime in his spare time. Sure he sounds insane, but at least his costume is economically efficient.

Check out photos from Defendor after the jump…
