Jan 19 2007Ewan McGregor as Kurt Cobain

mcgregor-cobain.jpgCourtney Love has been toying with the idea of a Kurt Cobain movie for years, but now that she's got the rights to the biography Heavier Than Heaven, rumor is she's ready to move ahead with Ewan McGregor playing the part of the Nirvana frontman. My guess is she just saw Trainspotting and was so impressed by his ability to negotiate in and out of toilets (she has gotten stuck numerous times attempting similar drug-induced feats) that she just needed to work with him. And then have sex with him. And then a pony.

He already played a version of Kurt Cobain in Velvet Goldmine. He was sort of an Iggy Pop figure in the early going but towards the end of the film becomes a much more Kurt-like (and looks shockingly like him, too).
