Information on Jack Black |
The hilarious and multi-talented Jack Black visited our 190 North studios! In his latest film, "School of Rock," Black plays the role of down and out rock star Dewey Finn who gets fired from his band and is forced to take a job as a 4th grade substitute teacher at a private school where his attitude has a powerful effect on his students. In this outrageous film, Finn also meets Yuki, a 9-year-old guitar prodigy, who could help him win a "battle of the bands" competition, which would solve his financial problems and put him back in the spotlight.
