Music video director Julien Temple is to direct a film about The Kinks. Temple previously directed music videos for the songs 'Come Dancing' and 'Don't Forget To Dance' by the 60s rock'n'rollers as well as directing the 2007 documentary on Clash guitarist Joe Strummer, 'Joe Strummer: The Future Is Unwritten'.
It is not yet known whether this film will also be a documentary or whether it will take the form of a biopic, but there is speculation that it may be titled 'Kinkdom Come' after Temple told The Gereralist that would be the name of his next project, a film about the 'You Really Got Me Band'.
There are also rumours of a Kinks reunion, which were sparked last year after the Davies brothers and drummer Mick Avory got together to play music. However, Ray Davies has officially stated that such a reunion is extremely unlikely, and that playing with his brother Dave helps in his recovery from his stroke in 2004.
