​A big flurry of Courtney Love-related news.

​In a recent interview with the Phillippines’ Inquirer.net, Love has revealed that she’s working on a biographical film based on the life of her late husband, Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. “The biopic should start within the next year or so,” she confirmed.

On the matter of choosing an actor for the role, the singer added: “I won’t name names because I don’t want to jinx it for anyone but these are 25-year-olds who are blond, gorgeous and the new Brad Pitts. There’s a ton of those. Some are really good actors, not just pretty faces.”

Love also seemed to rule out a possible Hole reunion, which she’s previously hinted at in the past. “I don’t want to get on the oldies circuit,” she’s quoted as saying. “I don’t need to do that for money. I want to put out music that is relevant today. [Being] one of the last chicks in a rock ‘n’ roll band is a weird place to be. It’s scary not to be selling out.”
