Moon Film Stalled Over Script

The Who rocker Roger Daltrey has confirmed a film about his late bandmate Keith Moon has stalled over problems with the script.

The musician has spent years working on the project, tentatively titled See Me Feel Me: Keith Moon Naked For Your Pleasure, which tells the story of the hell-raising drummer who suffered a fatal overdose of prescription medication in 1978.

Austin Powers star Mike Myers has been tipped to take the title role, and the film is slated for a 2012 release, but Daltrey admits the project is in trouble as he can't decide on a suitable script.

He tells Britain's Sunday Mail, "I can't get the right script to tell his amazing story. I can't find anybody who can really understand him."

Daltrey even jokes that his bandmate Pete Townshend should take over writing duties, adding, "Maybe Pete should write it."
