Spinal Tap 2 Trailer Features McCartney, Elton John Reunion

The cult classic mockumentary "This Is Spinal Tap" is getting a sequel titled "Spinal Tap II: The End Continues," releasing in September 2025. The film reunites the fictional British heavy metal band members David St. Hubbins, Nigel Tufnel, and Derek Smalls after a 15-year hiatus, as they prepare for one last concert in New Orleans, replacing a cancelled event originally featuring Stormy Daniels. The sequel features original cast members Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, Harry Shearer, and Rob Reiner, who also returns as director and documentarian Marty Di Bergi. Music legends Paul McCartney and Elton John make cameo appearances, with Elton John notably performing the iconic Stonehenge scene on a piano rising from beneath the stage. The trailer humorously showcases the band's antics, including launching their own cryptocurrency, selling branded "Tap Water," and joking about the dangers faced by their drummers. The film continues the blend of musical satire and comedy that made the original a cult favorite, exploring themes of aging, mortality, and rock 'n' roll excess.
