Behind the mask was a man who gave everything to the music.
"Pig: The Paul Gray Story" is a powerful, emotional biopic about Paul Dedrick Gray, the co-founder of the legendary metal band Slipknot. Known as "The Pig" and assigned #2, Paul Gray was a creative force who shaped the heavy metal world, but his journey was fraught with internal battles, personal demons, and a relentless pursuit of musical expression. The film dives deep into Paul’s life—from his early years in Des Moines, Iowa, to the formation of Slipknot, and the meteoric rise that would make the band a global phenomenon. As the band's bassist, Paul was a foundational element of Slipknot’s aggressive sound, complex songwriting, and haunting imagery, but the masks he wore on stage were only a reflection of the inner struggle he faced offstage. A story of intense passion, addiction, and the cost of fame, the biopic explores the complexity of Paul's relationships with his bandmates, his family, and himself. At the heart of the film is Paul's pursuit of creative freedom, the chaos of life in the spotlight, and the painful reality of losing himself in the very thing he loved. With haunting performances and an unforgettable soundtrack, "Pig" captures the essence of Paul Gray's life—both the music that defined a generation and the tragic loss of a man who gave his all, but never truly found peace.
