After years of delays, the long-awaited Keith Moon biopic is finally set to begin filming in June, according to Variety. Moon’s surviving Who bandmates and manager Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend will serve as executive producers, with the film being directed by Paul Whittington — best known for his work on The Crown and White House Farm.
The Real Me was written by British screenwriter Jeff Pope, who was nominated for an Oscar for his script for the 2013 film, Philomena. The Who’s longtime manager Bill Curbishley is among the film’s producers with the L.A.-based White Horse Pictures serving as the movie’s production house. No release date has been announced.
Roger Daltrey has been spearheading the Moon biopic for decades.
