He Never Died is described as a combination of “awkward comedy, stark drama and brutal action.”

Rollins, 52, plays a man dealing with the fact that he is unable to die.

Rollins fronted the punk band Black Flag in the early ’80s and later formed Rollins Band before working on solo projects. In recent years he has appeared on shows like Sons of Anarchy and in movies like Heat and Bad Boys II.

Rollins previously worked in Toronto on the 1995 sci-fi flick Johnny Mnemonic starring Keanu Reeves.
