How Penn Got in Tune

Later, Upper East Side! Badgley hits new notes with his breakout band

Norman Reedusadmits he “barely knows how to work an ATM.” But for

his latest movie, Triple 9,he had to pull off a bank heist. “It was kind of crazy,” he tells Us of filming the thriller (in theaters February 26). “There were real-time explosives going off. It was like we were really robbing a bank!” Of course, playing a badass is nothing new for the single star, 47, who filmed in downtown Atlanta while also shooting The Walking Dead. “I could see the show set from where we filmed the movie,” Reedus says. “I’d put on gold teeth to blow things up at Triple 9, then cover myself with blood for The Walking Dead.”GREAT LENGTHS But his hair remained the same. “I couldn’t cut it because I’m on a TV show about the end of the world — there are no Supercuts,” quips the dad of Mingus, 16 (with ex Helena Christensen). “My mom always bugs me to cut it!”

His Triple 9 character, Russel,

“protects the ones he loves. I have that too.”

W hen Gossip Girl wrapped in 2012, Penn Badgley decided to face the music. “I was desperate to make a record,” the 29-year-old tells Us. Forming the indie rock band

Mothxr (their debut album is out February 26) with three Brooklyn pals was easy: “We lived in the same neighborhood and had the same interests. We were bound to jam and see if it worked.” Badgley, who dates singer Domino Kirke, shares more.

Q: Tell Us about recording.We spent eight days holed up in an Airbnb in [L.A.’s] Echo Park. I made a lot of quinoa and oatmeal! In five days we already had five songs.

Q: Are they very personal? Deeply. But I wrote them so that nothing is obvious. They seem like they’re about one thing, but it’s really some-thing else.

Q: Have your oldcostars seen you?Chace [Crawford], Leighton [Meester] and Jessica[Szhor] have come to shows!
