A short comedy-based video featuring the one and only Jack Black has been released by EA in preparation for the release of Double Fine's Brutal Legend. Black plays the role of the game's main characters; a rock-hard roadie named Eddie Riggs.


Presumably this is the first of many Jack Black studio movies which will launch running up the game's release later this October. Check out our "10 Heavy Metal Covers that Inspired Brutal Legend" piece along with the new images in our recent Brutal Legend gallery update.



Bryn says: I like me some Jack Black. Tenacious D are one of my all-time favorite bands (and I use the word "bands" very loosely there). I've got some high hopes for Brutal Legend.

There's no denying the power of Tim Schafer's past titles, so fingers crossed for a rocking good time later this year.
