Oasis doc in the works: it's being made by Amy Winehouse documentary filmmakers

Asif Kapadia (director of the Amy Winehouse documentary "Amy) and James Gay Rees ("Amy"'s producer) will be respectively executive producer and producer of an upcoming documentary about Brit-pop champions Oasis. According to Screen Daily, they've been given "unprecedented" access to the band's archives.

Film company Independent will officially announce the project during industry event American Film Market, which takes place November 4-11.

Independent's managing director, Andrew Orr, explained to "Screen Daily":

Oasis are without doubt one of the classic British rock bands, selling 70 million albums worldwide and defining the sound of a whole era. At its heart are Liam and Noel Gallagher, two of the finest rock ‘n’ roll stars this country has ever produced. Mat’s sensibility and style are going to provide the perfect complement to this tale of the rise of one of the great rock ’n’ roll bands.
