‘I Wanna Dance With Somebody’-Whitney Houston Biopic Premieres, Monday, Dec. 26

Plot:Naomi Ackie stars as Whitney Houston in this biopic that charts the singer’s rise from obscurity to international superstardom.

The Super Bowl XXV scenario had better deliver, or we’ll require beta blockers about the time Whitney Houston’s life begins to take dark turns towards drug abuse, marital problems, and creative/spiritual deterioration. Ashton Sanders (Moonlight) portrays Bobby Brown in a Kasi Lemmons (Harriet, Eve’s Bayou)-helmed film based on a story by Anthony McCarten (Bohemian Rhapsody).
