NOVOCAINE follows Nathan Caine (Jack Quaid) who was born with a rare genetic disorder that prevents him from feeling any pain. When the girl of his dreams (Amber Midthunder) is taken hostage in a bank heist, he turns his inability to feel physical pain into an unexpected strength in the fight to get her back.
Hailed as “non-stop fun” (Jonathan Sim, Coming Soon), “an absolute blast” (Perri Nemiroff, Collider), and “a genuine riot” (Jeff Ewing, Collider), NOVOCAINE is Certified Fresh™ on Rotten Tomatoes® and has earned a stellar 85% Popcornmeter audience score**. Jack Quaid “absolutely kills it” (Rachel LaBonte, Screen Rant) as an unlikely hero whose only superpower is that he can’t feel pain.
NOVOCAINE joins Paramount+’s premium collection of high-octane, action-packed movies available on the service, ranging from Best Picture Academy Award® winner GLADIATOR and the epic follow up GLADIATOR II, to hit franchises including MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE, STAR TREK and TOP GUN, as well as critically acclaimed films like SEPTEMBER 5 and FORREST GUMP.
