Joy Division biopic


Recommended Posts

So here's what I've been hearing about the Ian Curtis/Joy Division film that is in pre-production. Jude Law may be cast as Ian Curtis. Surely this can't be true. I think somebody like Cillian Murphy would be appropriate, or maybe Ewan McGregor (he might be too old), or at least they could get some unknown actor who would be better than Jude Law! I understand Deborah Curtis, his ex-wife, has a great deal of creative control over the film, and she plans to have a bunch of second-rate bands cover his songs. I hope all this is just gossip and not really true. On a positive note, I've heard it will be shot entirely in black and white.

Jude fu**ing law!!!! Moby to be music superviser !!! an american film!!!?

Supposedly new order support the project but then have you heard their new album?

I loved 24hour party people.. one of funniest films in years

Ian has been exploited enough though... his music is his legacy...

But then again you never know might turn out to be a great film but very hard to feel optimistic..
