Character Posters for the Upcoming Underground Music Film ‘CBGB’

Although it’s probably not on everyone’s radar, it’s worth reporting the new character posters for the musically-inspired film CBGB.

Taking place in New York, the film is the story about Hilly Crystal’s famous nightclub that became the venue for underground Rock ‘N’ Roll. Starting as a Country/Bluegrass/Blues (that’s what CBGB stands for), the club morphed into an iconic place for music.

The posters themselves are very colorful and try their best to highlight the more mainstream names (Iggy Pop, The Police, Blondie). Although Randall Miller’s film doesn’t have a release date, we do know that Malin Ackerman and Alan Rickman (who plays Hilly) are involved.

I hope this turns out to be the next Almost Famous.
