Upon news of her passing, the movie that people were saying would have been Whitney Houston’s acting comeback is going to be released earlier than the original August release date. More details on “Sparkle” below.
“Dates are being discussed, and it’s still early, but the reasoning is that Whitney’s fans will want to see her in this movie, in which she gives a remarkable performance,” a studio insider tells RadarOnline.com. “This absolutely isn’t being done to make money. The IMDB website for the Sparkle movie has received record traffic in the hours since Whitney died.
“The movie is in post-production right now, and it could be released as soon as Memorial Day. The studio bosses want the public to remember Whitney as a brilliant performer and stunning actress. The execs are going to be sensitive to her death and will communicate with her family at an appropriate time.”
Whitney plays the mother of Jordin Spark’s character, who is trying to break into show business as a singer of part of a trio. The movie is a remake the 1976 version, which is loosely based on the story of The Supremes.
