Jennifer Aniston's Filmography

The new title is (gag) So You Wanna Be A Rock Star? It sounds so... um, not good. Not good at all. I'd go with something more simple, like maybe Metal or Rock Star or Cover Band. You know, something understated and clear; something very unlike So You Wanna Be A Rock Star? Just imagine the possibilities if critics don't like this film; they're going to tear into that title first. So You Wanna Be In A Good Movie? So You Wanna Have a Better Title? I'm guessing that Warner Bros. is going to change their collective mind on this one, by the way. This just doesn't seem like a title that is going to make it all the way to the theater to me. For now, however, there it is. Apparently, the reason for the change from Metal God was due to a trademark that Rob Halford has on the phrase, which he uses himself. |
Chris 'Izzy' Cole 
Chris Cole was born to rock. His longtime girlfriend Emily believes his talent could take him all the way - but Chris worships at the altar of Bobby Beers, the fiery frontman for heavy metal legends Steel Dragon. By day, Chris still lives at home with his parents and spends his days repairing copy machines. But when Chris takes the stage, fronting Pennsylvania's premiere Steel Dragon tribute band, all of that disappears. Chris Cole is Bobby Beers - mesmerizing audiences with his perfect imitation of Beers' electrifying vocals. The night his bandmates boot him out of the group, Chris is devastated - until an unexpected phone call changes his life forever: He, Chris Cole, has been tapped to replace Bobby Beers as the lead singer of Steel Dragon. In an instant, Chris rockets to the dizzying heights of sudden stardom, rising from devotee to icon, from rock fan to rock god - the wanna-be who got to be. So what happens when an average guy gets everything he wants - and discovers it's not enough?
One of the songs you'll hear (if you're not the type who runs out of the theater when the credits start) is "Good Vibrations", by Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, which appears as an outtake that resulted when a prank was pulled on Mark Wahlberg. In front of a crowd of extra's, just as he was expecting to lip-synch one of the "Steel Dragon" songs, the Marky Mark song came on instead, complete with breakdancers, to his complete surprise.
