Ray Davies Says Kinks Reunion Unlikely

But a Kinks movie is moving forward...
According to ex-frontman Ray Davies, a new feature film is in development about the Kinks. It's unclear if the film will be a documentary or a biopic, though the director had spoken about doing a documentary called Kinkdom Come a couple of years ago.
Davies said it's unlikely the band will officially reunite. "I will continue to play with ex-band members like Mick Avory from time to time. With Dave [Davies], a lot of it is psychological. I'll guide him in, and coerce and nurture him, and when the time is right I suppose I'll even shout at him again," Davies said.
Dave suffered from a stroke in 2004, but is said to be doing better. "I'll work with Dave, and whatever he can play we'll create something around it together. We'll function just fine like that," Ray said. "I gotta tell you — I miss the Kinks."
