Dream Cast for Grunge: The Movie

WordCobain around the campfire is Courtney Love has picked Ewan McGregor to play Kurt Cobain in a biopic about the lead-singer of Dave Grohl's first band. And while it's probably safe to assume the entire project exists only in Love's mind, we still have a few ideas for the rest of the cast...

  • Ashton Kutcher as Krist Novoselic
  • Jon Heder as Dave Grohl
  • Dakota Fanning as Courtney Love
  • Billy Corgan as Eddie Vedder
  • Chris "Ludacris" Bridges as Billy Corgan
  • The Pussycat Dolls as Soundgarden
  • Courtney Love as Cyborg Eleanor Roosevelt
  • Matthew McConaughey as Flannel

Dave Grohl's FIRST band? I guess we're not counting Scream, Freak Baby or Brain Damage. It was a long time ago, but not that long ago.

Dave Grohl's old band was actually called Dain Bramage but Brain Damage is close enough, nice catch!

I like Bill from King of the Hill to play Krist though, they look eerily similar these days.

not funny. dave grohl is a turd compared to Cobain. and Billy Corgan is better than all of 'em.

Other Cast Rumors:
-Seattle, WA will be played by Austin, TX
-Courtney Love will also play the part of the shotgun.
-Silverchair will not be played, mentioned, or remembered by anyone other than a vague recollection of a bad memory repressed and hidden in the darkest place of the soul.

Susan, I disagree. Purplemonkeybicycle and Jason are douchebags, but sean poole is not.

Any person who whose opinions or preferences differ from those that closely resemble mine is a douchebag.

This is the Internet!
