The producers of the recently announced Bon Scott film “The Kid From Harvest Road” have released a statement to clarify that the movie will not be a biopic.
“By drawing inspiration from the stories and atmosphere of the time period, rather than attempting a biopic, the film can offer a more imaginative exploration of Scott’s character and experiences”
“Focusing on his formative years in Fremantle allows for a deeper dive into the influences and events that shaped him as a person and ultimately as the iconic frontman of AC/DC. It also provides an opportunity to explore the cultural landscape of the time, including the burgeoning music scene and social dynamics of the era.”
Bon Scott, AC/DC’s legendary frontman, will be portrayed in his early years by Lee Tiger Halley.
Tim Duffy will produce the film with Ian Hale and Nicko Mezzino serving as executive producers for HALO Films and Protocol Pictures.
