In his exclusive interview with Undercover, Rob Zombie said that he is not directing a movie about Motley Crue.
Rolling Stone reported that Rob Zombie will direct ‘The Dirt’, the story of Motley Crue but Rob says it is not true.
“I am not directing the Motley Crue movie. I don’t know how that craziness started,” he tells Undercover.fm.
Instead, Rob Zombie is working on a new movie. “I am doing a movie called ‘The Lords of Salem,” he says. “’The Lords of Salem’ I started working on a little bit before I came here (Australia) and did some location scouting. When this is done I’m going to head home and start production on that. The rest of the year is filled up with film”.
Zombie’s most recent album is ‘Hellbilly Deluxe 2’, a sequel to his 1998 solo album. “It seemed like the right idea at the right time,” he tells Undercover. “It is so common to make sequels for movies that I thought it would be kind of interesting to make it for a record. I think what inspired it was that when I did start the record it was exactly 10 years since the last one.”
‘Hellbilly Deluxe’ was released in 1998 so the sequel was a long time coming after that 10-year anniversary. “We recorded the record then finished it but then I went to make a movie so I didn’t want to put the record out until I was done with the movie because I knew I couldn’t tour or promote it. So we recorded the record it, shelved it, went and finished the film and went back and put the record out.”
