Renowned Jedi Ewan McGregor – he used to get his wang out all the bloody time, putting me right off my popcorn – is apparently a frontrunner to play dead grunge man Kurt Cobain in the previously reported (here) film about the dead grunge man’s short life.
Courtney Love – she got married to Kurt on a beach, true story! – has already revealed a few details about the biopic, but now a rumour is doing the rounds to the tune of that first paragraph, up there. No, it’s not a rumour that Kurt Cobain’s a dead grunge man – that, friends, is a fact. I read about it in Melody Maker once.
Says an insider at The Daily Express: "A number of actors have been talked about the role but Ewan has emerged as the number one choice."
The film’s to be based on the book Heavier Than Heaven, by Charles R Cross. I have it! On my bookshelf! Above it are some cassette tapes, including the first Kylie Minogue album.
That’s my girlfriend’s. I don’t know where she was when Kurt Cobain ate the barrel of a gun on April 5, 1994. I went to see Dumb And Dumber a few days after. True story.

Son of a gun son of a bitch

Get
Michael Pitt to do him again.
Obi-wan has paid off well
but now he's bored and old
Get
June Sarpong to play him. i think i'd genuinely be more interested then.
I'd watch that
but only if she took a Method approach to shooting herself in the face
i just
don't see the point in this project at all. It saddening really. i think i'd have a lot more time for Kurt if the anus of his beautiful corpse wasn't so rigorously bloated with advertisers' tepid sputum.
When she's dead.
Or running out of places to get plastic surgery
Anyone remember
cult "classic" velvet goldmine? "Curt Wilde" lolz.
He's had some practice already then.
ZED ZED ZED.
Kurt Bloody Kobain.
Such a story. I'm just intruiged as to what happened in his life.
Was in band.
Became famous.
Shot self.
Boring.
but i suppose
the soundtrack will be quite good.
I don't like Nirvana.
They're not my cup of tea.
Apart from Unplugged, which is in my top 10 EVER.
Whoever writes these articles (Mike Diver) should stop trying to be irreverent/funny
Same goes with the Jarvis article.
Cheers.
OH MY GOD!!
is Dumb and Dumber that old?
Why not?
Don't see any harm. Basically uninteresting story, made readable.

There's no real point to it at all. I remember when his diaries were published, Careless Talk Costs Lives printed a full-page b/w photo of him with a small piece of text on the facing page: "Private thoughts should be kept private."
really?!
is it like when she has sex with it money spurts out of his penis?
Nice one
Base it on the worst fucking book about him that was put out. We get the picture Courtney Love...
sick
but apparently true.
It really isn't though.
I find Kurt Cobain's biography more interesting than many biographies I have read.
Oh dear
Strangely though, I reckon Macaulay Culkin could do a top job of it.
Nirvana
Just a band.
Beastie Boys !!!!
YAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my god but have you heard his American accent.
It will ruin the film.
bb
apparently she's going in big brother later...
Michael Pitt
seriously.
He did a good job the first time.
personally i think Ewan McGregor
will be good but I still most probably won't see this movie - can't wait for the Joy Division one though.
joy division one?
more info pls! and links.
Thommo.
Just a boy.
;-)
he's dead
i never realised he was dead, has been like people have been going on about it for years and bought t shirts and re released un heard material more times that 2 pac,
wtf with ewan mcgregor, mark renton=cool, rips off his mates
