‘This Is Spinal Tap’ Sequel Underway With Original Cast; Cameos Lined Up From Elton John, Paul McCartney, Questlove, Garth Brooks & Trisha Yearwood


The movie will see the return of Rob Reiner, Christopher Guest, Michael McKean and Harry Shearer with some notable cameos.

Rob Reiner is directing and Christopher Guest, Michael McKean and Harry Shearer are all reprising their roles as the comic heavy metal band, Spinal Tap. Guest, McKean, Reiner, and Shearer conceived the sequel, which after a 15-year hiatus, will see England’s loudest and most punctual band, reuniting for one final concert. Reiner said: “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.”
