Paradise City a spin-off of the 2017 American Satan film that was created by Sumerian Records’ founder Ash Avildsen.
The film series features Black Veil Brides’ Andy Biersack, Bella Thorne, Cameron Boyce, Sleeping With Sirens’ Kellin Quinn, Lamb of God’s Randy Blythe, Lilith Czar’s Juliet Simms, Slipknot’s Sid Wilson and SiriusXM host Jose Mangin and more. The series is described on IMDB as, “The lives of a rock star who seems to have it all and a young rookie kid who idolizes him collide through their broken homes built by the music business.”
“Almost everything in Paradise City is inspired by real events I have experienced growing up in an unorthodox single mom household as a kid estranged from his famous father and then my adult life becoming self-made in the ruthless music industry,” director Ash Avildsen shared via Loudwire. “Supernatural elements that have guided and misguided my life ever since moving to Los Angeles are also prevalent throughout the tale.”
