At the end of last month, Metallica announced the absolutely brilliant news that their forthcoming S&M² film will be hitting cinemas for one night only in October, and the band have now unveiled an epic official trailer for it.
The metal legends, along with the San Francisco Symphony, will be joining forces once more to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their iconic 1999 performance and GRAMMY-winning S&M album – not only featuring the first live performances of S&M arrangements in 20 years, but also renditions of songs written and released since the original show all those years ago.
Kymberli Frueh, SVP for Programming and Content Acquisitions at Trafalgar Releasing, says: "Trafalgar Releasing is excited to give Metallica fans around the world a chance to celebrate this anniversary concert together in local cinemas in October.
"The original collaboration between two San Francisco legends – Metallica and San Francisco Symphony became a true moment in music history two decades ago. Reuniting again to perform S&M² is a salute to the legendary collaboration and creates a special moment for Metallica fans to see this iconic pairing."
Check out the trailer below, and be sure to head to cinemas on October 9 to watch the full thing – tickets are on sale now from Metallica.Film.
