Shane Meadows ('This Is England', 'Dead Man's Shoes') is set to direct a film documenting the return of seminal band The Stone Roses. The director will film Ian Brown, John Squire, Gary "Mani" Mounfield and Alan "Reni" Wren as they rehearse for three sold-out shows – the band's first in 15 years – to be held in Manchester's Heaton Park next summer.
Meadows was present at the group's high-profile press conference last week, where they announced their reunion. Industry sources have confirmed the commission, although the band have said a decision on the film is due in the next few weeks.
