Several documentaries about Whitney Houston’s life, career, and death have also been released over the years, but I Wanna Dance With Somebody will serve as the first scripted biopic for Houston to be released theatrically.
Another musical legend is getting an all-new biopic, as a Whitney Houston movie is now in the works.
This will not be the first biopic based on Whitney Houston, as a TV movie about the singer’s life was released just five years ago by Lifetime.
Called I Wanna Dance with Somebody, the biopic will be written by Bohemian Rhapsody writer Anthony McCarten with The Photograph helmer Stella Meghie on board to direct.
