Metal Lords Netflix Series Trailer
Metal Lords is directed by Peter Sollet, who’s no stranger to telling stories about kids obsessing over obscure music styles: he also directed Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist, which had teenagers seeking a special and secret concert of an indie rock band. The script is penned by six-time Emmy winner Weiss, who not only rose to prominence for developing and writing HBO’s Game of Thrones, but also is attached to adapt the high profile sci-fi series The Three-Body Problem for Netflix. The cast of Metal Lords features Jaeden Martell, Isis Hainsworth, Adrian Greensmith, Noah Urrea, Analesa Fisher, Michelle Fang, Phelan Davis, Brett Gelman, Sufe Bradshaw, and Joe Manganiello.
Metal Lords premieres on Netflix on April 8
Two kids want to start a heavy metal band in a high school where exactly two kids care about heavy metal. Hunter (Adrian Greensmith) is a diehard metal fan —is there any other kind?— who knows his history and can shred. His dream in life is to win at the upcoming Battle of the Bands. He enlists his best friend Kevin (Jaeden Martell) to man the drums. But with schoolmates more interested in Bieber than Black Sabbath, finding a bassist is a struggle. Until Kevin overhears Emily (Isis Hainsworth) slaying on her cello. The motley crew must contend with school, parents, hormones and teen angst while trying to get along long enough for Skullf*cker to win the Battle of the Bands.
