Weezer Guitarist Brian Bell Confirms Band’s 2027 Movie Is ‘In the Can’
Singer Rivers Cuomo told a 2025 Coachella crowd that the band was shooting the film in Los Angeles before their gig.
Weezer guitarist Brian Bell has confirmed that the band's highly anticipated movie is "in the can" and set to release in 2027. Speaking to ALT 98.7 at the Los Angeles premiere of the Green Day-inspired Nimrods film, Bell hinted at the upcoming Weezer movie, stating that it's been completed and will be "incredible." The announcement comes just weeks after lead singer Rivers Cuomo shared during a Coachella performance that the band was working on their debut feature film during their time in Los Angeles.
Though a representative for Weezer has not provided any further details on the plot or release date for the movie, fans have gathered information from the band's fan club, which revealed a private filmed merchandise signing for select fans scheduled for April 21, 2024, as well as a photo of a "Notice of Filming" in Los Angeles for the movie titled "Weezer: Security Threat."
The production company behind the film is Watch Me Unravel LLC. Cuomo has previously attempted to break into Hollywood, having worked on a Fox series about a rock star in 2015 titled "DeTour," which was ultimately abandoned after the pilot was filmed.
