If there ever was a movie about thrash, Slayer: and their guitarist Kerry King would absolutely be into it. We could sit here and argue about who gets to play (James Hatfield could at least do it himself) but King already knows who he will choose.
in an interview with Metal hammer, King “The only one that loosely fits the description Vin Diesel. If you go that route, you might as well say The rockbut i’m not nearly that giant. It would be great though, I will say The rockbecause I like a lot of the things he’s into.”
On the one hand, The rock it would be funny because the guy is being thrown into hell King no And if he did, I’d rather have absolutely no one discount how crazy he is The rock it – just big, muscular King running around without addressing anyone’s problem. On the other hand, Vin Diesel would be interesting because he seems like a pretty cool guy.
King – note The rock or Diesel – is set to hit the road again for a 28-date North American headline tour in 2025. The tour kicks off on January 15th, 2025 in San Francisco and ends on February 22nd at the Home of Lassie Blues.
