Also coming later in 2023 is "Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar," an original full-length movie written and directed by Brendon Small ("Metalocalypse") and produced by Titmouse, Adult Swim, and Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment. The film stars Small, Tommy Blacha, Victor Brandt ("Metalocalypse"), Stephen "Thundercat" Bruner (Grammy(R) Award-winning musician), King Diamond (KING DIAMOND; MERCYFUL FATE), Mark Hamill ("Batman: The Animated Series"; "The Machine"), Kirk Hammett (METALLICA), Jon Hamm ("Confess, Fletch"; "Top Gun: Maverick"), Scott Ian (ANTHRAX), Amy Lee (EVANESCENCE), Malcolm McDowell ("A Clockwork Orange"), Juliet Mills ("Passions"), Laraine Newman ("Saturday Night Live"), Raya Yarbrough ("Metalocalypse: The Doomstar Requiem - a Klok Opera"), and Livia Zita (2022 winner - Society of Voice Arts and Sciences Award).

The all-new animated movie begins after the heroic rescue of Toki Wartooth; DETHKLOK frontman Nathan Explosion finds himself traumatized in a BRUTAL professional and romantic flat-spin, all while he is tasked with fulfilling the prophecy and confronting the ultimate songwriting challenge to save the planet. Can Nathan Explosion look beyond his brutally damaged ego to save his band, stop the Metalocalypse, and finally face the ultimate evil: Salacia?

As a special highlight, fans can also anticipate the release of two full-length albums this year WaterTower Music will release both the film soundtrack, "Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)" as well as "Dethalbum IV" around the launch of the film. Meanwhile, fans can summon DETHKLOK now by streaming old and new music with the Metalocalypse: Dethklok Complete Collection playlists.
