The Irish Film & Television Network (via Entertainment Weekly) reports that Outkast’s Andre’3000 landed the starring role in a long-brewing Jimi Hendrix biopic. The film, titled All Is By My Side, will begin shooting in Ireland in three weeks.
Written by John Ridley (Three Kings, U-Turn), the film allegedly chronicles the period during which Hendrix wrote and recorded his debut album Are You Experienced in England in 1966 and 1967. No word yet about co-stars or planned release dates, but the film’s slotted for a six-week production period.
