Cobain Biopic Will Include Nirvana's Music

NME:
"The forthcoming Kurt Cobain biopic from Universal Pictures is set to be the first Nirvana film to feature the band's music. It had been reported that Universal had recently bought the rights to Charles R. Cross' Cobain biography, Heavier Than Heaven. Cross has since told NME that the package Universal have bought would be a combination of both the book rights and the rights to Nirvana's music, as put together by Courtney Love, who owns the rights to Nirvana's music. 'Courtney Love has packaged my book rights with Nirvana's music," he explained, in reference to the package Universal now have rights to. "It's important, as for it to be a definitive Kurt biopic you need the music.'"

Unfortunately, the Black Widow will be the film's executive producer so...
