Metallica have released footage of their panel for “Through The Never” at Comic-Con in San Diego on July 19.
The band were joined by director Nimród Antal, producer Charlotte Huggins and actor Dane DeHaan to discuss the new 3D film in front of a packed Hall H at the annual event.
Metallica followed their panel appearance with a secret show at the Spreckels Theatre in the city – watch video of their live set here.
“Through The Never” tells the story of a band crew member named Trip (played by DeHaan) who is sent out on a mission during Metallica's live set in front of a sold-out arena: to meet a disabled truck and retrieve a particular item. However, the routine task turns into a surreal odyssey when Trip's van is hit by another vehicle, and he subsequently finds himself up against a death-dealing horseman. As Trip flees through desolate streets, he has only his wits to help him avoid the deadly horseman and deliver Metallica's cargo.
Following its recent premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, "Through The Never" will debut in IMAX theatres across North America for a one-week engagement starting Friday, September 27; it will then expand into additional theatres on October 4.
