Michael Pare reprises his role as the hot-blooded rebel rocker Eddie Wilson, who, after twenty years, still has 'the kind of charisma that drives adolescent girls wild' (L.A. Herald-Examiner). At the height of fame, rock legend Eddie Wilson (Pare) drove his car into the river and disappeared from the limelight. Twenty years later, his band Eddie and the Cruisers is hotter than ever. Posing as construction worker, Eddie has maintained a quiet life in Canada. But his relentless desire to make music pulls him back to the stage where he forms a new band and an even hotter sound. Meanwhile, to cash in on the revived interest in the band, record executives an Eddie and the Cruisers 'lost tapes' album and promote a worldwide search for the mysterious rocker.
