Tribeca Film and Focus World are banking on the Buckleys, co-acquiring “Greetings from Tim Buckley” an upcoming film chronicling singer Tim Buckley and his son Jeff, TheWrap said.

“Gossip Girl” actor Penn Badgley stars as Jeff, the beloved rocker who released just one studio album before his death in 1997 at the age of 30. Ben Rosenfield plays Tim, a folk-rock guitarist during the 1960s and ‘70s who died of a drug overdose at age 28.

The film, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, follows Jeff as he prepares for his public singing debut, a tribute show to his father. A woman working at the show, played by Imogen Poots, then catches his eye. Meanwhile, the film also portrays Tim as he drives across the country with his then-girlfriend.

It is one of three Buckley films in the works, a group that also includes “Mystery White Boy” and “A Pure Drop.” “Greetings” will be the first to open in theaters.
