In a recent interview with The Rock Experience With Mike Brunn, KISS manager Doc McGhee revealed, “It’s a biopic about the first four years of Kiss. We’re just starting it now. We’ve already sold it, it’s already done, we have a director, McGhee [Entertainment]. That’s moving along and that’ll come in ’24.”
According to the Rolling Stone, in April 2021, singer and guitarist Paul Stanley verified reports that Netflix was close to closing a deal on the film, which is tentatively titled Shout It Out Loud.
At the time, director Joachim Rønning was already attached to the project with a script from Ole Sanders.
No casting decisions have been announced, though Stanley says that he isn’t up-to-date enough with the younger generation of Hollywood to know who he would want to portray him.
“For casting to be accurate in terms of age, we are looking at actors in their early 20s,” he told said. “Honestly, I don’t know a whole lot of actors in their early 20s. When people get asked these kinds of questions, they’ll say, ‘Oh, Brad Pitt,’ or this one or that one. Well, those guys are in their 50s or 60s, so you’re talking about another generation of actors. And I’m the first to say I’m not up on a lot of them.”
