The band is in the midst of its “End of the Road Tour,” which has been slowed by the pandemic, but picks back up in the fall and included a New Year’s Eve concert in Dubai. Atmosphere’s Dorothy Canton and David Hopwood are the executive producers. The film will be produced by Canton through his Atmosphere Entertainment, Leigh Ann Burton through Opus 7, Courtney Solomon, David Blackman, and Jody Gerson through Universal Music Group, Doc McGhee through his McGee Entertainment (he is KISS’ longtime manager), Rønning and KISS’ Simmons and Stanley. Unlike traditional hair metal bands, KISS used heavy makeup and tons of pyrotechnics to stand out. The band’s larger-than-life music will be a big part of the story, but the film will also focus on the duo going back to when they were two trouble-making kids from Queens who formed an unlikely friendship, starting KISS after enlisting guitarist Ace Frehley and drummer Peter Criss. Shout It Out Loud will have close cooperation from bandleaders Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley. The film will be a co-production of Mark Canton’s Atmosphere Entertainment and Universal Music Group.
Netflix is near a deal for Shout It Out Loud, a film package that aims to contextualize the iconic hard rock band KISS in the same way Bohemian Rhapsody did for Queen.Īccording to Deadline, Netflix is tying up a deal after a bidding battle for a film that will be directed by Joachim Rønning, the Norwegian filmmaker whose credits include Kon-Tiki, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.
