Music
filmmaker JULIEN TEMPLE is set to direct his daughter Juno in his upcoming THE
KINKS biopic.
The
director's You Really Got Me movie will feature the 25 year old as The Kinks
frontman Ray Davies' ex-wife Rasa, opposite singer/actor Johnny Flynn as
Davies. Pride star George MacKay will portray Ray's bandmate brother Dave.
Julien
Temple, who has directed a number of The Kinks music videos, previously
directed Juno in his 2000 film Pandaemonium.
The
filmmaker is looking forward to telling the behind-the-scenes story of the
band, explaining to Screen Daily, "This is an exciting chance to tell the
Kinks' story in a visceral and real way. The lyrics of The Kinks have always
been fascinating to me and there is an amazing human story here as well which
has yet to be captured on film."
Filming is
scheduled to begin later this year.
