Marilyn Manson to Guest Star on Californication

Californication is preparing to rock out in 2013.

The Showtime hit will delve deeply into the world of music on Season 6, with Maggie Grace on board as a groupie who gets closely involved with Hank.

Now, the network has announced that heavy metal icon Marilyn Manson will guest star on the seventh episode of the upcoming season as a role he knows well: himself.

Look for the Grammy-nominated artist to meet Hank at the home of Atticus Fetch (guest star Tim Minchin).

Filming on Californication Season 6 got underway last month and it will premiere some time in January.
