Quentin Tarantino will direct a forthcoming biopic about Jimi Hendrix, according to reports.
The infamous filmmaker is said to have agreed to shoot the film, which is thought to have been in production for some months.
Tarantino will collaborate with Leon Hendrix, Jimi's brother, on the movie, and will be given full access to his name, likeness, and archive interview footage for the project.
Shooting is expected to begin later this year, with the movie scheduled to take in numerous cities that played host to the life of Hendrix, including Seattle, New York, Toronto, and London.

See, the reason that guy named it "Aint' it cool news" is because he has the credentials to back it up.
For instance.
If Quentin Tarantino regularly comes to your house, you must be one cool motherfucker.

Yup I heard about that a couple years ago.

If you knew AICN history, you'd know that he does.
The guy went from running the site to producing Hollywood movies.
Check the name Harry Knowles on Wikipedia & IMDB.

Don't know about coming to your house, but if Tarantino thanks you in "Hostel" credits, then you must be one cool motherfucker.

So Andre 3000 isn't playing Hendrix, with a flipped screen so it can appear to look like Andre is playing left handed? That's what I remember being reported last I heard about a Hendrix movie...
-
nothing about a andre 3000 movie on imdb either...
would be great to see a hendrix movie if well done.. i really liked 'the doors' movie.. something like that would be awesome

IMDB isn't very reliable, it's a cool site and all, but they get a lot of their information from stuff fans send them.

They wouldn't have to flip the screen for Andre. Since he doesn't know how to play guitar, he could just learn the basics lefthanded instead of righthanded. I'm left handed, but when I taught myself to play I just taught myself to play regular right handed guitars so it wouldn't be a problem. If I were making a movie, i could competantly mimick playing left handed even though I'm used to right handed, it's not that big of a deal that you'd want to film everything backwards.

Well, those are just the reports I was hearing back when there was mention of Hendrix being played by Andre...
