We're used to James Hetfield's voice booming through the speakers at times addressing serious topics within Metallica's music, but for his next project, there's no guitars, drums and bass backing him. Hetfield has narrated a new documentary on the dangers of pornography that is screening across the country and will be coming soon to video on demand.

The film is titled Addicted to Porn: Chasing the Cardboard Butterfly, and it comes from award-winning filmmaker Justin Hunt as he delves into the impact that pornography has on societies around the globe and how modern technology has made it easier access for youths.

As the film synopsis says, "Like it or not, porn is here and it is harmful. In this controversial film, award-winning filmmaker Justin Hunt dissects the impact of pornography on societies around the globe, from how it affects the brain of the individual, to how modern technology leads to greater exposure to youth, to watching it literally tear a family apart. In what may well be one of the most devastating issues in modern culture, this film will break down the damage that porn is doing to us a human race and leave you thinking that it's clearly time that we start taking porn addiction a bit more seriously."

A new trailer has surfaced for the film, which can be seen above, and while he's not seen or heard, the credits tease that Hetfield lent his voice to narrating the film. This is not the first time he's lent his voice in this manner, and fans may remember in 2014 he was the narrator for the History Channel series The Hunt.

As stated, Addicted to Porn: Chasing the Cardboard Butterfly is screening in several markets. See the dates and locations below. Plus, Blabbermouth reports that it will be available via Video on Demand in April. For more information on the film, click here.
