Spinal Tap 2: The End Continues — release date, cast, plot and everything we know about the comedy sequel

Michael McKean, Harry Shearer and Christopher Guest in Spinal Tap 2: The End Continues.

Rob Reiner, Christopher Guest, Michael McKean and Harry Shearer are getting the band back together, as the quartet is reuniting for Spinal Tap 2: The End Continues, a sequel to their classic comedy This Is Spinal Tap that depicted the titular fictitious rock band.

This Is Spinal Tap, which was one of the earliest iterations of the "mockumentary," is filled with great bits like the amp that goes to 11, the black album and the miniature Stonehenge, to name a few. It is seen as one of the greatest comedies of all time, ranking 29th on the American Film Institute's list of 100 best comedies and was added to the US National Film Registry in 2002. Now, more than 40 years after its initial release, Spinal Tap 2 is on its way, joining a slew of recent legacy sequels like Top Gun: Maverick, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny and more.
