Kurt Cobain Biopic - Casting suggestions (revisited version)

A biopic on Kurt Cobain is currently in the works and Oren Moverman (The Messenger, I'm Not There) has signed on to direct it. I've made a fictional film cover of the upcoming biopic. It serves as a casting suggestion. I think it is important that an actor in a biopic looks a lot like the person he plays. If that's not the case, I find it disturbing. Joe Anderson is an actor, he can sing, play guitar and looks a lot like Kurt Cobain.

Cast:
Joe Anderson - Kurt Cobain
Ty Simpkins - Young Kurt Cobain
Brianne Davis - Courtney Love
Matthew Lewis - Krist Novoselic
Aaron Michael Metchik - Dave Grohl

@TheSkunkman420 They're talking for years about making this movie. I've heard director Oren Moverman is set to direct the biopic. But I haven't heard anything about it for a long time :-( !

[SaigeAdriana]

Joe Anderson HAS to play Kurt

[3guyzandacamera]

i just saw the new harry potter and kept thinking to myself the whole time that Neville Longbottom looks like Krist Novaselic lol

[krang0117]

i heard zac efron could play kurt. I think he would do an awesome job! He has a similar vibe to kurt plus looks, the rest are spot on :)

@martinmerrywinkle Thanks. I think this is the best way to express my ideas on biopics. I thinks this is the best way to imagine how a biopic could look like. I make the film cover including the actors which I think are the right choice for the roles. It is indeed created in Photoshop. I take the hair and bodies of the stars and mix with the faces of actors.

@castingsuggestions how do you come up with this stuff, is it photoshopping hair onto actors eg. Kurts onto Joe anderson's face? cool idea

[JoAqUiNBandit]

When I saw Acros The Universe, I instantly thought of Cobain when I saw Joe's character!

[noellestarr228]

I think either Jared Leto or Charlie Hunnam should play Kurt

[Voorhees67]

Dave and Krist should play themselves at the end of the movie in an epilogue.

[TheNirvanaPage]

Joe Anderson lol i thought that was Jared Leto

[AndziaNirvana]

Charlie Hunnam has to play KURT COBAIN ......... true story
