Courtney Love to Executive Produce (Another) Drama About Kurt Cobains Last Days


Universal Pictures and 25th Hour screenwriter David Benioff are getting to work on Last Days an untitled drama about the life of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. Courtney Love, whose criteria when picking projects dealing with her dead husbands legacy is usually incredibly stringent, will serve as executive producer. The script will adapt Charles Cross 2001 biography Heavier Than Heaven, which included accounts gleaned from Cobains unpublished journals as well as information from Cobains family and friends. This news comes nearly two weeks after About A Son a Cobain documentary that utilizes interview excerpts and Control, about the life and suicide of Joy Divisions Ian Curtis, hit theaters. We assume an Elliott Smith script is being Fed-Exed overnight to Paramount as we type. So far, music rights have not been secured, but with Love in the exec. producers chair, that shouldnt be a problem. Casting hasnt begun yet either, but we recommend this guy, considering he did such a great job the first time around.
