‘Spinal Tap 2’ Sets September Release and Turns the Volume ‘Up to 11’ in First Teaser
"Spinal Tap II: The End Continues," the sequel to 1984's music mockumentary "This Is Spinal Tap," will rock and roll into theaters this fall.
Directed by Rob Reiner, “Spinal Tap II” The End Continues” sees Christopher Guest, Michael McKean and Harry Shearer reprising their roles as members of “one of England’s loudest bands.” In the sequel, the fictional heavy metal group reunites after a 15-year hiatus for one final concert. A newly released teaser sees the band’s signature Marshall guitar amplifier getting turned “up to eleven.” It’s a reference to the first film, in which Spinal Tap’s guitarist Nigel Tufnel (Guest) explains to Marty that the volume on his amp goes up to 11 instead of the standard of zero to 10. “We feel privileged for the opportunity to work with Rob Reiner and the brilliant minds behind the original ‘This Is Spinal Tap,’ and to be part of a film that has resonated with so many,” said Bleecker Street’s CEO Andrew Karpen and president Kent Sanderson.
