Chris Jericho On The New Film “Terrifier 2,” Future Plans For Fozzy, His Next Book & More

Few professional wrestlers — if any — have been innovative to the extent of All Elite Wrestling’s inaugural World Champion (and current Ring Of Honor World Champion) Chris Jericho. Jericho made his in-ring debut over 30 years ago in 1990, ultimately capturing major titles in multiple promotions around the world. But that is far from all Jericho has accomplished on a mainstream leve, as he has also found success as an actor, best-selling author, world-touring musician, prolific podcaster and a television host. Combining all of those passions and job titles, Jericho is also the namesake of the Chris Jericho’s Rock ‘N’ Wrestling Rager At Sea, which sails again for a fourth edition in February 2023.

In the new film Terrifier 2 — which features Chris Jericho — Art The Clown returns to the timid town of Miles County after being resurrected by a sinister entity. Art The Clown ultimately opts to target a teenage girl and her younger brother on Halloween night. Terrifier 2 had its North American premiere at this year’s Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas and also stars Felissa Rose, David Howard Thornton, Griffin Santopietro and Lauren LaVera. The movie was written and directed by Damien Leone.

On October 5, 2022, I had the pleasure of interviewing Chris Jericho again, this time via Zoom and embedded below. Beyond Terrifier 2, we talked about Jericho’s future plans with Fozzy, whether he has plans for another book, his Long Island roots, and what his favorite album by David Lee Roth is. More on Jericho and Terrifier 2 can be found online by clicking here, here, here and here.
