Chad Kroeger is going from “Rockstar” to TV star.
The Nickelback frontman has been cast in an upcoming comedy series called I Kill the Bear, set to premiere in 2026 on the Canadian streaming service Crave.
I Kill the Bear is created by Jared Keeso, who also created the Canadian series Letterkenny and its hockey-themed spinoff, Shoresy. It follows a “family of bear wranglers for film sets, and why – after 100 years – they’ve decided to make this film their last,” according to a press release.
As far as we can tell, I Kill the Bear is not at all related to a certain Chicago-set, high-stress restaurant dramedy.
Nickelback’s most recent album is 2022’s Get Rollin’.
