I looked on wikipedia.org and found this under Green Day's page:

In 2005, a 12-minute video for "Jesus of Suburbia" was completed, as well as a live video for "St. Jimmy." The video of "Jesus of Suburbia" is stated to be a prequel to their upcoming film, American Idiot: The Motion Picture. In an interview with Billboard magazine, Billie Joe Armstrong revealed that the group are still considering turning their punk rock opera into a film, in much the same spirit as the Beatles' Yellow Submarine, Marillion's Brave, Pink Floyd's "The Wall" and the Who's Tommy. Shooting of the movie is planned to start in 2006. The band has stated they have no intentions of acting in the movie, although they may make an appearance. Lou Taylor Pucci and Kelli Garner from the "Jesus of Suburbia" music video could make an appearance if the motion picture does go into production.

It's a concept album. And anyway... if they make a movie out of it - which, by the way, is old news - it'll be a rock opera.
