Limber up whatever muscles you use for air-guitaring, bust out the meaningless umlauts and set a reminder in your phone that you can’t actually pull off a mullet – because next month you’re going to be listening to a lot more 80s rock.
The long-awaited movie adaptation of The Dirt, Mötley Crüe’s wildly successful collective memoir, is coming to Netflix on March 22.
As you can see, it stars Machine Gun Kelly as Tommy Lee, Iwan Rheon AKA Game Of Thrones‘ Ramsay Bolton AKA Ramsay Snow as guitarist Mick Mars, and Aussie Daniel Wilson, who’s also been in The Punisher, as frontman Vince Neil.
It also has a brief flash of our favourite hypebeast ratbag Pete Davidson as a record executive with long hair and a slightly-too-wholesome energy – but we’re guessing that doesn’t last long.
The Dirt was a massive success because it’s full of, well, dirt – a warts-and-all, fly-on-the-wall, warts-on-flies-on-walls account of what it was like to be in one of the biggest bands on the planet during a period when that meant sprinkling cocaine on your cereal (probably).
From celebrity divorces to vehicular manslaughter and hurling things out of hotel windows, it should be everything you want in a rock biopic.
