The Shins' Frontman James Mercer To Act In A Movie
Tue, 02 Dec 2008
The Shins' frontman James Mercer is all set try his luck with acting in movies. Mercer is starring in the feature film "Some Days Are Better Than Others," directed by Matt McCormick. The film deals with a set of lonely people trying to create their own abstract forms of communication, McCormick told Pitchfork. "The character he plays is in many ways an extension of the character that I created for him in The Shins' 'The Past and Pending' video I did a while back," McCormick adds. McCormick has previously worked on videos "Australia" and "The Past and The Pending" for the band. The film also features former Sleater-Kinney drummer Carrie Brownstein. Brownstein has previously appeared with Mercer in a short by McCormick entitled "Light Tiger Eye." The film is slated for an Autumn 2009 release.
