Dance/post-punk pioneers New Order have reportedly reworked several versions of Joy Division tracks for Director Anton Corbijn's upcoming biopic on late JD frontman Ian Curtis. As previously reported, members of the band were butting heads with Corbijn regarding the direction of the film, entitled Control, but all appears well with the delivery of this news. In addition to New Order's JD reworkings and incidental score, the film's soundtrack will also feature current artists' versions of classic Joy Division tracks (including The Killers' take on "Shadowplay"). Apparently shot in Black and White, Control stars newcomer Sam Riley as Curtis (weirdly, Riley played Mark E. Smith of The Fall in 24 Hour Party People) and Samantha Morton as Deborah Curtis whose book the film is based on. The film will be released to theatres this fall.
