New Jim Morrison documentary in the works

A new Jim Morrison documentary is in production by Gunpowder & Sky and Jampol Artist Management, drawing on unearthed diaries and home movies.

A new documentary about Jim Morrison is in production. The film is a collaboration between the Gunpowder & Sky studio and the company that manages the estate of the late Doors frontman, Jampol Artist Management.

"Our job is to guide, protect and connect our clients' extraordinary legacies to fans both old and new, while always maintaining the highest standards of credibility and authenticity", says JAM founder Jeff Jampol. "I can't think of a better partner than Gunpowder & Sky to help us introduce the timeless art of Jim Morrison to potential new generations of fans around the world".

Gunpowder & Sky CEO Van Toffler adds: "Ever since the day my big bro brought home 'The Soft Parade' by the Doors, I was equally enraptured and scared by the prescient and sometimes haunting lyrics of Jim Morrison. He had such a wonderfully unique and fearless approach to it all, and as Jim said: 'One shouldn't take life so seriously, no one gets out alive anyway'".

Morrison, of course, died in 1971, aged just 27. The new film will use "unearthed" personal diaries and home movies, according to Variety.

As well as this, Gunpowder & Sky has a number of other music-based projects in the works, including a sequel to its Tekashi 6ix9ine documentary '69: The Saga Of Danny Hernandez', and a documentary about late rapper Lil Peep, titled 'Everybody's Everything'.
