Kasabian are reportedly being chased to score the soundtrack to film director Guy Ritchie's next film.
Madonna's ex-husband, who has previously directed 'RocknRolla' and the Brad Pitt-fronted flick 'Snatch', is apparently hoping to meet up with the band to discuss the idea.
"The Kasabian album 'West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum' is the best thing I have heard this year. I've have been playing it non-stop," he told The Sun.
"I'd love to meet up with the band. The music on the latest album is like a film soundtrack. He's a talented bloke, Serge [Pizzorno]."
The band missed out on the Barclaycard Mercury Prize 2009 earlier this week.
