‘This Is Spinal Tap 2’ Starts Filming, Confirms Cameos: Questlove, Trisha Yearwood Joining Paul McCartney and Elton John in Sequel
Questlove, Trisha Yearwood, Paul McCartney, Elton John and Garth Brooks will appear in the sequel to the 1984 cult classic, which is now shooting.
The feature is shooting in New Orleans, with Rob Reiner directing and Christopher Guest, Michael McKean and Harry Shearer all reprising their iconic roles as the legendary heavy metal band. “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,” Reiner said in a statement. Considered a cult classic that effectively launched the mockumentary genre, “ This Is Spinal Tap ” in 2002 was deemed “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant” by the Library of Congress and was selected for preservation by the National Film Registry.
