Up until now, we've seen glimpses of Stacee Jaxx. They've mostly been of the big tattooed wings on his back and his totally ripped torso. But in the just-released extended trailer for the movie remake of the smash Broadway jukebox musical "Rock of Ages" we finally get to hear a bit more from Tom Cruise as faded 80s metal icon Jaxx.

In the final scene of the new two-and-a-half minute extended trailer, Cruise sings
 Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive" like an arena-rocking champ as sparks rain down from the rafters and his flowing mane of hair and tight leather pants drive the crowd into a frenzy.

It just goes to show that all the research Cruise did to nail Jaxx paid off. "I just kind of studied the whole time period and read a lot of books," he told MTV News
 of his preparation for the role. The clip shows off even more of star-stuffed cast, including a mustachioed Paul Giamatti, eternally psyched crowd-surfing club promoter Alec Baldwin, narrator Russell Brand, nerdy journalist Malin Akerman and, yes, a monkey in a studded leather jacket named "hey, man."

We also hear from aspiring rocker Diego Boneta as starry-eyed aspiring rocker Drew Boley, as well as the girl of his dreams, Julianne Hough
, as they duet on the classic hair metal ballad "Heaven" by Warrant.

Back in February, Hough had nothing but praise for Cruise's previously untapped musical chops
. "Oh, he's fantastic," Hough said. "If I remember correctly, I hear his ... grandparents or something were opera singers, so he has this tone and this pitch that is incredible."

Catherine Zeta-Jones is resplendent in her pink pantsuit as the uptight Patricia Whitmore, who is determined to shut down the filthy Ages club. And a hilarious Baldwin is there at every turn to make her skin crawl, with lines such as, "Oh my God, I just threw up ... in my pants."

Mary J. Blige gets a bit of shine as wise club veteran Justice Charlier, telling Hough, "The stage is a pedestal, when you're up there, you're untouchable."

The movie, which opens on June 15, also features "Breaking Bad" actor Bryan Cranston and Will Forte.
