The forthcoming Kurt Cobain biopic looks like it has its forthcoming Kurt Cobain. Gigwise is reporting a growing consensus among Hollywood bosses that James McAvoy, star of last year'''s The Last King of Scotland and this year'''s Oscar-buzz-generating Atonement, is the ''"perfect choice''" for the role.
The project will be an adaptation of Charles Cross''' 2001 Cobain Biography Heavier Than Heaven and has recently made news for Courtney Love'''s attachment as an executive producer.
Reports of Billy Corgan'''s attachment as ''"Coattail Rider #2''" are still unconfirmed. [Gigwise]
