NEW YORK -- Cooper Hoffman had never wanted to act. In elementary school, he joined in the plays but only helped out backstage. When it was time for cast and crew to take a bow, he remembers staying as far out of view as he could, or hiding in the bathroom.But the very first time that Hoffman, son of the late Philip Seymour Hoffman, read in a casual, let’s-just-see, not-really-official audition for “Licorice Pizza” with writer-director Paul Thomas Anderson and his eventual co-star Alana Haim, something clicked.“I don’t think I ever really considered it a possibility.

The other one is just a touch in the future, but that’s being written right now too.”Cooper also confirmed the sound of the two albums, which are both being overseen by producer Bob Ezrin.“They’re two entirely different kinds of albums, but they’re Alice Cooper, pure rock’n’roll albums,” he said.“The two albums will really be hard rock albums.” The news of these new albums from Cooper – one of which is expected for release this year – comes just under a year on from the release of Cooper’s most recent studio album, ‘Detroit Stories’, in February 2021.
