Janis Joplin Biopic Hits Another Major Setback
. (Radio.com) It's still going to be a while before anyone sees the Janis Joplin biopic, Get It While You Can, which has been in development for half a decade. The film, for which Amy Adams signed up back in 2010, was slated to start filming this year but now it's been hit with another setback. This time, it's not finding a director--Dallas Buyers Club auteur Jean-Marc Vallee is still on board--the snag is instead a lawsuit, The Hollywood Reporter reports. The film's producers LKL Productions and Silver Reel have filed suit against writer Ron Terry, his affiliate companies and his investment firm Chesterton Capital for breach of option agreement, unfair competition, interference with contract and prospective economic advantage. LKL and Silver Reel apparently purchased the rights to the project for $117,000 last August but they claim that Terry and his affiliates have still been shopping around the script. That's not the only problem. Read about it here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
