Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst is directing a new film that he co-wrote called Moose, Variety reports. The thriller stars John Travolta as the title character—a rabid movie fan who is obsessed with his favorite action film star (played by Devon Sawa) and eventually attempts to destroy the star’s life. Moose is inspired by Durst’s real life experience with a fan who allegedly stalked him years ago. Film for the project is currently rollin’ in Alabama.

On April 19, an interview with Travolta about the project was shared by TMZ. He said that working on the film with Durst “may be my favorite experience I’ve had.” He called Durst “so generous” and “an artist.” Durst previously directed the movies The Education of Charlie Banks (starring Jesse Eisenberg) and The Longshots (starring Ice Cube).
