Asif Kapadia, the director responsible for last year's critically acclaimed Amy Winehouse documentary, is producing a film about Oasis - but there's a lot of footage that's unusable.

The documentary is being directed by Mat Whitecross, who made the Stone Roses film Spike Island, and produced by the team behind 2015's Amy. Though it'll have "unprecedented access" to the band and their archives, it's not going to be quite the whole story - if Noel Gallagher's got his facts straight.

In a new interview with GQ, the former Oasis frontman said, "We have all this footage from behind the scenes leading up to the gigs, most of which can’t be used as there’s just monstrous drug taking."

Kapadia's Amy documentary didn't shy away from the singer's battles with drug and alcohol addiction, but it didn't use any actual footage of the singer taking drugs, so Gallagher's comments may well be accurate.

Elsewhere in his GQ interview, Gallagher once again too aim at Adele, saying, "I'm not a fan. She always comes on the radio when I'm having my cornflakes: 'Hello?' No, fuck off."
