RUSH Drummer's Big-Screen Voice Debut Delayed

August 24, 2006

According to a posting on the RUSH fan site Power Windows, RUSH fans will have to wait for Neil Peart's big-screen voice debut awhile longer. Originally expected to be in theaters this fall, the "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" movie has been delayed until February 2007, with some people speculating that it will in fact be released straight to DVD due to poor expectations of ticket sales. In a January 2006 interview with creators Matt Maeillaro and Dave Willis, Maeillaro stated "We got Neil Peart to be in it. The drummer from RUSH. No, we didn't get Geddy Lee. We didn’t need him for this. We're waiting for the sequel for Geddy Lee," while Willis quipped, "We're done with Geddy Lee. Geddy Lee missed his opportunity. Now we'll put everyone in the movie, but Geddy Lee."
