"We were asked to do the soundtrack to the film, which I thought was a f**king great idea - for Joy Division to do the music for a Joy Division film - because we've never really done a soundtrack before." ... "It may include new stuff. Anton wants to use songs by Joy Division so that each song becomes a video. Like the way the Atmosphere video was filmed, he wants to write videos that appear in the film." - Peter Hook as reported by Andre Paine from BBC6 Music December 2006
Moby will be involved - even though he was going to be involved with the rival film and the producers of this one weren't initially keen. The music will have an original JD soundtrack - and there will be another soundtrack with JD cover versions. Bands will be given a song and just 'a couple of days' to record it. No bands that have been approached have turned it down. Update: at March 2005 the following bands have reportedly been approached U2, Marilyn Manson, Kraftwerk, The Smiths and Doves. Only Kraftwerk are reported to have said no.

It's out next year, it's being filmed as I type, in Macclesfield, Sheffield and Nottingham (apparently parts of Sheffield and Nottingham still look like old 1970's Manchester )robertzombie wrote:when will this be out? has it even been made yet?

With regard to the film - I always though Indrek would make a good Ian Curtis.

I think the film could be pretty good, I'm looking forward to it.
Directed by Dutch photographer Anton Corbijn, Control is set to open in UK cinemas in March, 2 years after its American producers Orian Williams and Tom Eckhert first contacted Mojo to discuss their new project. Eckert has spoken about their lengthy effort to get the film off the ground, having optioned the rights to 'Touching from a distance' in the late 90's. ''I don't think there are many really great stories out there.'' said Todd. ''But this is one of them.''
Williams, in particular, felt it crucial to find a director whom both Deborah and the surviving members of Joy Division could trust. Though Anton Corbijn had yet to direct a full feature film, the Dutchman's credentials were impeccable. In 1980 he moved from Holland to Britain specifically to photograph the group, his iconic shots for NME launching a career that would see him in the 80's and beyond become first choice lensman for U2, Depeche Mode and R.E.M.
Indeed it was non other than Bono who told Williams at a party in 2004, ''You've got to get Anton to direct this movie''.
''Initially, (Corbijn) did not want to make a film about a musician", explains Williams. ''But then he realized it wasn't a conventional biopic, it was a love story.'' Once on board the director's first stipulation was that the film should be shot in moody black and white. The result, says Williams has an ''abstract poetic, epic feel, but it's not arty, its not a fever dream. Its traditionally mapped out- Antons a big fan of old English movies, he loves David Lean, Truffuant, Jim Jarmush, (Loach's) Kes.''
Control - part-financed by Depeche Mode's Martin Gore - has, it seems won some important fans. The surviving members of Joy Division saw a preview on November 28th, reporting to Mojo that they ''very much approve of it and will be backing it 100%''. ''Initially the group were disinterested in the film, but at the same time were intrigued and wanted to get involved'' says Williams.''When we first met them backstage at a gig in Liverpool in 2005, Bernard said 'Just have some fun with it.' We did and the finished Movie is amazing.''
Control will be released in spring 2007, for more info go to controlthemovie.com

The Killers confirm Joy Division cover
The track will feature on Ian Curtis movie
The Killers have covered the 1979 Joy Division song 'Shadowplay' for the soundtrack to the forthcoming movie about the life of the band's frontman Ian Curtis.
The movie, 'Control', is based on the book 'Touching From A Distance', by Curtis' widow Deborah who also co-produced the movie. She is played by Samantha Morton. The film was directed by famed music video director Anton Corbijn.
As previously reported on NME.COM, New Order have recorded the incidental music for the movie, and are also mooted to be re-recording a number of Joy Division tracks.
The biopic is set for a September release.
