Weezer‘s Rivers Cuomo has been working on a film musical called Buddha Superstar. The film shares a producer with Green Day‘s American Idiot show.
Cuomo told The Forty-Five, “It’s something I’ve always wanted to do, and I can’t believe it’s taken me this long. I think I just needed somebody else to come along and really encourage me.”
He also shared an update on Weezer's upcoming “four-album” project, saying that “each LP corresponds to one of the four seasons.” The current title is Weezer Seasons, and each record will include eight songs.
Cuomo said, “(The albums are) called ‘Spring’, ‘Summer’, ‘Fall’ and ‘Winter’,” adding that the first album will be released on the first day of spring.
Weezer's new album, OK Human, was released last month.
