Metallica frontman James Hetfield is headed back to the big screen.
Hetfield will star with Peter Dinklage and Juliette Lewis in the Western “The Thicket.”
The story centers on the abduction of a girl by a killer named Cut Throat Bill.
The girl’s brother then hires bounty hunter Reginald Jones (Dinklage) to find her and he brings a band of misfits along.
There’s no word on what Hetfield’s role is. Filming is underway in Canada.
