Spinal Tap Sequel Plans Reunite Band, Feature Major Musician Cameos
Rob Reiner is directing the long-awaited sequel to This Is Spinal Tap, titled Spinal Tap II: The End Continues, set for release in September 2025. The story centers on the fictional band reuniting after a 15-year hiatus, sparked by a viral resurgence of their music on social media, inspired by the real-life resurgence of Kate Bush's song in the Netflix series Stranger Things. The plot also incorporates the death of the band's original manager, with his daughter inheriting a contract that mandates one final concert. Reiner, who also reprises his role as documentarian Marty DiBergi, revealed the sequel was partly motivated by financial disputes involving band member Harry Shearer, who sued to reclaim rights and earnings from previous sales. The film promises numerous high-profile cameos, including Paul McCartney and Elton John, and will retain the improvisational style of the original while being structured around new story elements. The sequel aims to satisfy fans while expanding on the band’s history and legacy after decades apart.
