Acclaimed Anvil Documentary to Receive Theatrical Re-Release
Anvil! The Story of Anvil, the 2009 documentary following the cult Canadian heavy metal band Anvil, is receiving a theatrical re-release this fall and will also be hitting digital streaming services later this year. Directed by Sacha Gervasi, the acclaimed documentary shed light on one of the hardest-working metal bands that never made it during the 1980s. Formed by singer/guitarist Steve “Lips” Kudlow and drummer Robb Reiner, the band has trudged forward for decades despite a lack of commercial success, as earnestly depicted in the film. In fact, it was the documentary itself that gave Anvil their biggest career boost to date. Featuring interviews from Metallica’s Lars Ulrich, Lemmy Kilmister, Slash, and more, the film put Anvil on the radar of metalheads who were perhaps previously unawa...

Shia LaBeouf Cast in Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis
There’s already a lot of big names attached to Megalopolis, the upcoming epic feature from Francis Ford Coppola. Now, it’s been confirmed that the embattled Shia LaBeouf has joined the film’s cast.
