Try to quit the self.request.get on get_content_data forms constructors and use the "object" variable. With that get you reinitialize the constructor, more in this link.

You should be able to use the "instance" kwarg for the instantiation of the form from an existing model if that's what you need. Example:

context['form'] = self.form_class(self.request.GET, instance=request.user)
