You’re going to love the first teaser trailer for upcoming Casablanca Records movie Spinning Gold!
Spinning Gold was announced last year and will show the rise of Neil Bogart’s Buddah and Casablanca labels during the 1960s and 1970s.
Actor Jeremy Jordan plays Bogart, and the movie shows him signing Donna Summer, Bill Withers, The Isley Borhters and The Village People.
And check out this star-studded cast: Wiz Khalifa plays George Clinton, Tayla Parx plays Donna Summer, Ledisi plays Gladys Knight, Jason Derulo plays The Isley Brothers’ founder Ronald Isley.
Spinning Gold has been in development for over a decade. It’s in theatres March 31 ’23.
Director Timothy Scott Bogart said in a statement, “Spinning Gold is about a group of people who, once upon a time, lived a fairytale and made their dreams come true, all set to some of the greatest music ever pressed in vinyl. Bringing these dreamers and artists to life has been the privilege of my life.”
The film’s synopsis reads: “Along with a ragtag team of young music lovers, Neil and Casablanca Records would rewrite history and change the music industry forever. Their mix of creative insanity, a total belief in each other and the music they were creating, shaped our culture and ultimately defined a generation. In a story so unbelievable that it can only be true, comes the motion picture event of the musical journey of Neil Bogart and how his Casablanca Records created the greatest soundtrack of our lives.”
As a music nut, I cannot wait to see this movie!!
