Plenty of documentaries have trained their cameras on the Clash and/or the band's magnanimous frontman Joe Strummer, and for good reason. Not only were the Clash inspiring like a lot of early punk bands, but musically, they outclassed pretty much all of their peers.

Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on your tolerance for documentaries about worthy yet well-worn subjects), it's time to make way on the shelves for another Joe Strummer documentary.

On June 24, Legacy Recordings will release The Future Is Unwritten on DVD. The movie takes on Strummer's life inside and outside of music as its subject, including coverage of his time in the Clash as well as the 101'ers, the Latino Rockabilly War, and the Mescaleros.

Director Julien Temple (The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle, The Filth and the Fury) rounded up tons of juicy interviews for the film, including Strummer's old Clash bandmates, Bono, Jim Jarmusch, Martin Scorsese, Johnny Depp, Steve Buscemi, Flea, Grandmaster Melle Mel, Courtney Love, Anthony Kiedis, Matt Dillon, Steve Jones, Don Letts, and plenty of others.

The soundtrack for The Future Is Unwritten came out last year, and you can check out our review of it right here.
