**Los Angeles, CA** – Weezer surprised Coachella attendees and fans worldwide with the announcement of a new movie project during their surprise set on April 12th. Frontman Rivers Cuomo revealed that the band had spent the previous couple of weeks filming a movie in Los Angeles.
The news follows several clues hinting at the project. A “Notice of Filming” for a feature film titled “Weezer: Security Threat” appeared in Los Angeles earlier this month, listing Watch Me Unravel LLC (a reference to their hit song “Undone – The Sweater Song”) as the production company. The notice detailed a three-day shoot featuring simulated gunfire and special effects. Additionally, Weezer’s fan club received correspondence about a private, filmed merchandise signing with an NDA requirement.
While details remain scarce, the band’s Coachella performance, which exclusively featured material from before 2008, served as an unexpected promotional event for the film. Weezer joins Green Day (“New Years Rev”) and Pavement (“Pavements”) as California bands currently starring in unconventional film projects. The nature of “Weezer: Security Threat” remains undisclosed, but the band’s recent activities suggest an intriguing and potentially action-packed movie is on the way.
