A Second Aaliyah Movie In The Works
August 27. 2014
Aaliyah
A second movie on the life of the late R&B singer
Aaliyah is in the works. Previously, singer B. Simone was earmarked
to play Aaliyah in a film, but the project never came together.
However, there's new talk about the Simone project and Aaliyah's
family is said to be involved at this juncture.
B. Simone
Recently the Lifetime network announced they are
making an unauthorized Aaliyah biopic, angering the singer's family.
The Judiciary Report warned the Lifetime biopic sounds like a
disaster in the making, not to mention, the network is known for
producing less than stellar biographical films. Then casting items
were released and the public responded very negatively to the
incorrectly chosen actors and actresses given parts in the movie,
creating mini-scandal after mini-scandal online.
Alexandra Shipp has replaced Zendaya Coleman in
the Lifetime unauthorized Aaliyah biopic
The Judiciary Report is not endorsing either Aaliyah
biopic, but of the actresses chosen thus far, B. Simone bears the
strongest resemblance to the late star. If you don't look closely
enough, you'll think Simone is Aaliyah. Still, there's more to a
picture than casting. The script and many other elements must be
right.
