Sixx explained, “Netflix said, ‘Make the movie that reflects the book.’ And Jeff Tremaine [director] said, “I like punk rock and heavy metal and i want to make this movie based on the book … and everyone supported the idea.”
The bassist added: “It was very important for us not to censor anything. We know they had scenes in the biography of N.W.A. Straight Outta Compoton that were deleted. They did not want to be portrayed that way. And I don’t know if they softened anything in the Queen movie. With us, you have four outrageous characters and it was important that we did not change anything.”
The Dirt will debut on Netflix on March 22. The soundtrack will arrive on the same day and will feature Crüe’s classics. In addition to three new songs and a cover of “Like A Virgin” by Madonna. The first unreleased, “The Dirt” featuring Machine Gun Kelly, has already been released.
I'm a Brazilian journalist who always loved Classic Rock and Heavy Metal music. That passion inspired me to create Rock and Roll Garage over 6 years ago.
Music has always been a part of my life, helping me through tough times and being a support to celebrate the good ones. When I became a journalist, I knew I wanted to write about my passions.
After graduating in journalism from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, I pursued a postgraduate degree in digital communication at the same institution. The studies and experience in the field helped me improve the website and always bring the best of classic rock to the world!
