The Sequel To This Is Spinal Tap Is Being Filmed


After decades of whispers and rumors, the legendary heavy metal mockumentary This is Spinal Tap is finally getting a sequel. According to reporting by Variety, cameras are rolling in New Orleans, and with filming underway, a few juicy details have been revealed.

Original director Rob Reiner is back at the helm, reuniting with the iconic trio of Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer. They’ll be reprising their roles as the ever-bumbling, perpetually crisis-stricken band Spinal Tap. Reiner will also step back into the shoes of Marty DiBergi, the patient (and slightly bewildered) documentarian chronicling the band’s misadventures.

According to Reiner, Marty himself (well, Reiner pretending to be Marty) is “thrilled” to be back on the road with the band, taking a break from his prestigious (or perhaps not-so-prestigious) teaching gig at the Ed Wood School of Cinematic Arts.

“I recently spoke to Marty DiBergi who said that he was more than happy to take a sabbatical from his position as a visiting Professor’s Assistant at the Ed Wood School of Cinematic Arts to once again document Spinal Tap to ensure their place in the pantheon of Rock and Roll.”

The plot, penned by the original cast and director, revolves around a disgruntled Spinal Tap reunited for one final show as the result of a shady contractual obligation. The band is also apparently not too thrilled with DiBergi either, for his depiction of the band on their last, ill-fated, and epic American tour.

The impressive list of cameos, including music legends Elton John, Paul McCartney, and Garth Brooks, has also expanded further with the additions of Questlove and Trisha Yearwood.

It seems we will soon get a hilarious and heartwarming return to the world of rock n’ roll funniest band.
