Joe Strummer on DVD

A new documentary on the life of Joe Strummer will be released in June.

Several documentaries are already in existence about the group The Clash and its lead singer, Joe Strummer, which is a band that inspired many punk bands.

Pitchfork reports that a new documentary  about Strummer is coming.  On June 24, Legacy Recordings will release The Future Is Unwritten on DVD.

The film will recount Strummer’s life, including both his musical career and personal life.  The documentary will include his time with the Clash, and also when he was with the 101’ers, the Latino Rockabilly War and the Mascaleros.

The documentary’s director, Julien Temple, interviewed several people for the project, including members of the Clash, Bono, Jim Jarmusch, Martin Scorsese, Johnny Depp, Steve Buscemi, Courtney Love, Anthony Kiedis, Steve Jones, and many others.

The soundtrack for The Future Is Unwritten was released last year.
