ABC/Randy HolmesIggy Pop will make a special appearance at the U.S. premiere of Gimme Danger, the new Jim Jarmusch-directed documentary about Pop’s influential proto-punk band The Stooges, which will take place October 1 at the New York Film Festival.
The screening will be held at Alice Tully Hall in New York City at 9:15 p.m. ET, and Jarmusch also will take part in the event. Gimme Danger traces the history of the unpredictable and volatile group from its late-1960s formation in Ann Arbor, Michigan, to the present day. The film features new interviews, archival photos and concert footage, and animation and graphics created by artist James Kerr.
Gimme Danger got its world premiere in May at France’s Cannes Film Festival, and also will be shown at the Toronto International Film Festival in September.
