Iconic filmmaker George A. Romero talks to SHOCK about his impending star of the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
SHOCK just learned the awesome news: horror and dark fantasy filmmaking legend George A. Romero will finally be getting his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The news officially hit earlier today via the official Walk of Fame press conference live stream.
Though fans have been campaigning for Uncle George to get his star for some time (with a surge of support at the 2015 Texas Frightmare Weekend instrumental in the nod), the maestro himself was still ample shocked when SHOCK contacted him to offer our congratulations.
“Who would have thought that this movie loving kid from the Bronx would one day wind up here, with his name in terrazzo and brass on a Hollywood sidewalk,” said Romero.
“It’s been a long, strange journey and I’m not even sure I belong on this beat. But it’s very cool and I’m very honored. This one’s for the fans.”
Ever the class act, that man.
