Kurt Cobain's first official documentary in works at HBO

HBO is working on the very first fully authorized Kurt Cobain documentary.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, the film by Oscar nominee Brett Morgen, titled 'Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck,' is being shaped by co-producers HBO Documentary Films and Universal Pictures International Entertainment Content Group, and would feature Nirvana songs and performances, as well as previously unheard Cobain originals.

Morgen, who had started working on the project 8 years ago, said that he had acquired over 200 hours of unreleased music and audio, a vast array of art projects, oil paintings, sculptures, countless hours of never-before-seen home movies, and over 4,000 pages of writings, that would "help paint an intimate portrait of an artist who rarely revealed himself to the media."

Late Nirvana star's daughter, Frances Bean Cobain, would be executive producing, while Morgen produces alongside Danielle Renfrew Behrens. Larry Mestel and David Byrnes are also executive producing along with David Morriso.

The film would make its debut exclusively on HBO in the US in 2015, while Universal would release the film worldwide in theaters next year.
