Coming-of-age comedy Metal Lords unleashes trailer and poster

March 11, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

Netflix has released a poster and trailer for Metal Lords, the upcoming comedy from director Peter Sollett (Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist) and writer D.B. Weiss (Game of Thrones) which follows friends Hunter (Adrian Greensmith) and Kevin (Jaeden Martell) as they enlist the help of cellist Emily (Isis Hainsworth) to form a heavy metal band to enter the local Battle of the Bands competition; check them out here…

“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.”

Metal Lords arrives on Netflix on April 8th.
