Controversial filmmaker Julien Temple is the odd choice of director for a new Marvin Gaye biopic.
Temple, the man behind punk movies Jubilee and The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle, has reportedly accepted the challenge of picking up the film that both Cameron Crowe and F. Gary Gary abandoned.
According to ScreenDaily.com, the film will focus on Gaye's final studio album, Midnight Love, which was recorded in Belgium, where the soul legend was living in tax exile.
Temple will shoot the film in Ostend - the town Gaye called home in the early 1980s.
No one has been cast as the tragic Sexual Healing singer yet.
