New Trailer For Martin Scorsese's HBO Series VINYL
As you all probably know by now, Martin Scorsese is reteaming with his Boardwalk Empire collaborator Terrence Winter and rock 'n roll legend Mick Jagger to launch a new HBO series called Vinyl. What you might not know yet is that Scorsese, who executive produced but only directed the pilot of Boardwalk, will be even more hands-on with this show. He told Deadline:
“I’m in all stages of production, selecting directors, working in the tonal meetings and, of course, selecting the music. When I first started using recorded music it was in Mean Streets, and this project is something natural and close to my heart. I’m going to continue to be involved as much as possible in all episodes and I hope that I can out time to direct a few more shows.”
Also a cool piece of trivia: the show was originally envisioned to be a movie, but the economic crash of 2008 meant that they had to retool it into a series because a three hour movie about the music industry no longer seemed like a viable option. Watch the brand new trailer below, and check out Vinyl when it comes to HBO on February 14th:
