Jack Black, one-half of the Grammy Award-winning comedy rock duo Tenacious D, has announced the cancellation of his band’s remaining global tour dates after his bandmate, fellow actor Kyle Gass, made comments about the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a concert over the weekend.

On Tuesday, Mr. Black, 54, said in a statement on Instagram that he was “blindsided” by Mr. Gass’s comment.
