A new film about the Rolling Stones' Exile On Main St. sessions is set to be released.


The production titled Exile on Main Street: A Season in Hell, which is being directed by Downton Abbey's Andy Goddard, is based off of the book by Robert Greenfield.


The Stones spent the summer of 1972 recording Exile On Main St., which mostly took place at Keith Richards' house in Nellcote, in the south of France, due to high taxes driving the band out of England.


"There was a feeling you were being edged out of your own country," Richards said later. "Basically, I think that the Stones really felt like exiles. It's us against the world now: f— you. That was the attitude, you know."


Virgin Produced, City Entertainment, KippSter Entertainment and The Gotham Group are producing the project.


Filmmakers of the project are currently looking to fill the roles of Mick Jagger and Richards. They plan on starting to film this winter.
