Jack Black comes to Town

Jack Black will be in town around ACL Festival's dates (October 8-10) to shoot "Bernie" with local director Richard Linklater, and the actor is expected to drop by Zilker Park for the music festival.

Comedian extraordinaire Jack Black was actually a big part of the origin of the ACL festival.

According to Austin360.com, promoters Charlie Jones and Charles Attal signed String Cheese Incident to co-headline the ACL fest with Tenacious D, Jack Black's band.

"Bernie," by the way, will be filmed in the Austin area, and a few scenes will be filmed in Bastrop and Smithville.
 

Get ready for a Pop-Culture-Palooza this weekend! We have a premier party for the return of Doctor Who, a premier party for the return of Game of Thrones, and a chance to pitch in and help build the only 1:1 replica Star Wars Starfighter in America. Along the way, there’s also LARPing, gaming, and plenty of other geeky get togethers.
