Biopic on reggae legend Bob Marley

British director Jenny Ash has announced making a biopic about reggae music legend Bob Marley. Ash is developing a project about the reggae artist, focusing on the time he spend living here, reports contactmusic.com. "There's never been a fiction film about Marley. We've never had a sense bob-marley
of him as a real man, as opposed to the legend," said Ash.
Marley lived in the British capital in 1977, after an attempt was made on his life in Jamaica. While there he hung out with the likes of the Sex Pistols band and other punk rockers.

Greenacre Films' Amanda Jenks and Nadine Marsh Edwards are going to produce the project.

However, Ash does not yet have the right to use his songs in the project, a stumbling block which has left other planned biopics of Marvin Gaye and Janis Jopling in the shade.

She did not reveal who was in line to play the No Woman No Cry hitmaker.
