Asylum Entertainment has formed a co-production partnership with Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello and his recently formed Comandante Productions.

The two-time Grammy-winning guitarist and 2023 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, his company Comandante and Asylum will develop a slate of premium documentary films and series that draw on his musical legacy, social consciousness and lifelong dedication to activism.

Throughout his extensive musical career, Morello has been the guitarist for Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave, and has worked on various solo projects and collaborations with the likes of Eddie Vedder and Bruce Springsteen.

“It’s an honor to collaborate with Tom, an outspoken visionary artist and activist who has galvanized the music scene for an incredible 35 years,” said Steve Michaels, CEO of Asylum Entertainment Group. “We’re committed to building off his highly infectious energy by intermixing revolutionary music with television and film—a powerful combo that’s sure to blow away audiences while influencing meaningful change.”

“I’m always looking for new exciting ways to combine revolutionary art with revolutionary ideas, to create mosh pits for the mind, heart and soul,” Morello said. “Super excited to be partnering with Asylum to bring some amazing stories to light.”
