Julian Cope’s life to be filmed

All ready mentioned elsewhere but -

“...the curious story of Julian Cope, former Smash Hits cover star, practising druid and great British eccentric, is set to be turned into a feature film. David Morrissey, the award-winning actor, has secured the film rights to Head On, Cope’s autobiography.

“A student of pagan ritual, Cope’s most surprising career shift has been his emergence as an acclaimed expert on Britain’s prehistoric stone circles; his book, The Modern Antiquarian, sold 40,000 copies, was adapted as a BBC documentary and prompted an invitation to lecture at the British Museum.”
