Update (5:45PM ET): This story has been amended with a statement from Stone Sour confirming that Jim Root is in fact no longer in the band.

However, now the band has announced that it has parted ways with Root.

Slipknot / Stone Sour vocalist Corey Taylor has taken his talents to the silver screen. The musician will appear in the upcoming horror flick 'Fear Clinic,' which stars 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' legend Robert Englund.
