Michael Stipe, Melissa Auf der Maur, Eric Erlandson, Billie Joe Armstrong, Patty Schemel and Butch Walker will also make cameos in the film.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cCourtney has waited a long time to tell her story, in her own words,\u201d said producer Julia Nottingham of Dorothy St Pictures, which also spearheaded <em>Pamela, a Love Story<\/em>. \u201cAs a child of the \u201990s, I was always curious about Courtney, a woman who often appeared to be defined by her husband, Kurt Cobain. We made this film because Courtney\u2019s story is bigger than the headlines. It\u2019s raw, complicated and deeply human.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tAs Nottingham pointed out, Love has long been heavily associated with Cobain. She was married to the late Nirvana frontman for two years up until his death in 1994, and shares a daughter, Frances Bean, with him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tBut beyond her personal life \u2014 which was also marked by widely publicized substance abuse issues \u2014 Love was a highly influential figure in the burgeoning grunge scene of the 1990s, forming Hole in 1989. The band released four studio albums, all of which charted on the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/charts\/billboard-200\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Billboard 200<\/a>, and scored three hits on the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/charts\/hot-100\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Billboard Hot 100<\/a>: \u201cDoll Parts,\u201d \u201cCelebrity Skin\u201d and \u201cMalibu.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tLove is also known for her work as a soloist as well as her acting career.
