Jeff Buckley biopic in the works

Pictured here without personal demons.

The Hollywood Reporter report (after all that's what they do) that a biopic based on the life of musician Jeff Buckly is currently in the works. Brian Jun is writing and directing the film with Buckley's mother, Mary Guibert, and Michelle Sy producing. The
trade reports: Buckley was considered by critics one of the most promising artists of his generation after he released his debut album, Grace, in 1994. Such musicians as Robert Plant, Elton John, Bob Dylan and Paul McCartney praised the album, and his cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" is considered the definitive version of that song. Just as his career was taking off, however, Buckley drowned in Memphis, Tenn., in 1997.
Filming is expected to start later this year.
