Speaking to XFM, Cave said: “I don’t know when it’ll get [filmed]. I keep getting asked to do these things but for one reason or another I’ve been kind of not doing them – but there are certainly things in the pipeline.”

One of these is likely to be Cave‘s second novel, the follow-up to 1989’s ‘And The Ass Saw The Angel’.

Reluctant to discuss the plot, the singer said: “I don’t want to spook that away but I’ve definitely been thinking in those terms lately. I just know the way things happen – you get a little idea about something and it then grows and that seems to be happening.”
