Jack Black Paid Loving Tribute to ‘Incredible Inspiration’ Rob Reiner Following Director/Actor’s Killing: ‘There Is No Tenacious D Without ‘Spinal Tap’

Black also told Seth Meyers that his beloved 2003 rock comedy "School of Rock" could not have existed without Reiner's classic rock mockumentary.

Jack Black took a moment during his visit to Late Night With Seth Meyers on Tuesday night (Dec. 16) to pay tribute to late Hollywood legend Rob Reiner. Just days after Reiner and wife Michele Singer Reiner were found in their Los Angeles home after police say they were stabbed to death — the couple’s 32-year-old son, Nick Reiner, has been charged with two counts of first degree murder in the case — Black said he would “feel weird” if he didn’t talk about Reiner’s influence on his career.

“I don’t really want to talk about anything other than Rob Reiner because he was such an incredible inspiration to me,” said Black of the producer/writer/director and actor who began his nearly 60-year career on Normal Lear’s landmark All in the Family sitcom before going on to direct such beloved films as This Is Spinal Tap, Stand By Me, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally…, A Few Good Men and modern other classics.
