Film director, Brett Morgan hopes that his Kurt Cobain feature will reflect his spirit and be an 'embodiment of his character'.
The Nirvana frontman Cobain took his own life in 1994 after battling against heroin addiction and depression, but is hailed as one of the most iconic rock symbols of his generation.
Morgan has been making a biopic based on The Nirvana frontman's life with his widow, Courtney Love for the past five years and hopes to capture all sides to Cobain.
Morgan told NME magazine: "It'll be an embodiment of his character. If you think about Kurt, he's a contradiction. He could be sincere and sentimental, and also ironic and sarcastic.
"He was sweet and sour. He was incredibly funny too. The film has to reflect his spirit. The thing about him people might not know too is that he was an incredible visual artist and left behind a treasure chest of comic books, paintings, Super8 films, all sorts."
The Kurt Cobain biopic is due for release in 2014
The director is taking inspiration from Pink Floyd's 1982 film 'The Wall' and has admitted to be 'ambitious' with his film style.
Morgan added: "We're hoping the Cobain film, that'll hopefully be released in 2014, will be this generation's 'The Wall' - a mix of animation and live action that'll allow the audience to experience Kurt in a way they never have before. It's very ambitious."
