If you want to talk about some serious cameos then make sure you catch the premiere of Johnny Cash’s new video "God's Gonna Cut You Down" on MTV TOMORROW (11/9) at 11PM. Over 30 musicians and actors are taking part in the late Johnny Cash’s video, including Justin Timberlake, Bono, Jay-Z, Kanye West, Chris Rock, Terrance Howard, Kate Moss, Johnny Depp, and so on.

Its one beautiful video too – it’s in black and white and it’s a combination of still and action shots. One really great part is both Owen Wilson and Rick Rubin appear together to throw flowers in the ocean, showing their respect for him.

Take a look at the entire list below and you can pick out your favs.

Please help pass along the news on probably one of the most star studded videos ever, and maybe even movie.

do you think Adam Levine and Amy Lee are offended by the implied snub that the reader needs to be told what bands they're in but not who Travis Barker, etc. are?

if they didn't say maroon 5 i would have thought it was ILX's own adam r levine

One really great part is both Owen Wilson and Rick Rubin appear together to ~~throw flowers in the ocean~~ kill everybody involved, then their families, then themselves, showing their respect for him.

Which Mick Jones?

in light of the rest of that crew, i put my money on the Foreigner version...but who knows.

The funny thing about this was that my screen size/resolution caused this to be the lines at the bottom of the screen --

Please help pass along the news on probably one of the most star studded videos ever, and maybe even movie.

Thanks!

That just put an image in my head of Brian Wilson and two slutty coeds pacing around a sandboxed singing "Surf's Up" while Vince Vaugh plays the piano.

Old School with Brian Wilson could very well may be the most depressing concept for a sex comedy ever.

I think they needed to put what band Amy Lee was from because there is a jazz musician Amy Lee as well, she was in Jimmy Buffett's band for about 15 years.

― SAS (sschwartzberg), Friday, 10 November 2006 07:09 (eighteen years ago)

"jazz"

The list feels incomplete without anyone from Audioslave or Weezer.

Can you get that many people standing on one man's coffin?

I just like the idea of Johnny frowning at all this and shaking his head.

i think i need to join the peace corps or something

Was Moby miffed re: "Run On"? Only reason I can fathom his absence.

The ghost of Bill Hicks doesn't have enough piss for all these faces.

this will surely rival John Parr's "Man In Motion (St. Elmo's Fire)" video for sheer star power...

"Patty" Smith?...

― hank (hank s), Friday, 10 November 2006 19:26 (eighteen years ago)

Really though, isn't this the most honest expression of the posthumous Cash-craze?

― Eppy (Eppy), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:13 (eighteen years ago)

I can understand Moss being in the video, what with them both being hopeless junkies, but are there logical reasons for the rest of them?

Enjoy wearing black, protesting oppression.

― Eppy (Eppy), Friday, 10 November 2006 20:19 (eighteen years ago)

In America, everyone is famous, and this video is proof. That goes for the non-Americans, too, because this is a Johnny Cash video. And clearly us famous Americans are sad about ... stuff.

P.S. This might be the best role Chris Rock has ever had.
