In the final trailer for the Whitney Houston movie, we see Naomi Aki as a superstar. Online feedback is divided.
On Thursday came the official announcement of the biopic “I Want to Dance with Someone” from Sony.
There we see Naomi Aki (30) as the pop icon herself, Ashton Sanders as Bobby Brown and Stanley Tucci as Clive Davis.
Sonnen described the film as “a candid portrait of the complex and multifaceted woman behind The Voice”. Type diverse.
different reactions
The newly released trailer received mixed reviews online, but Naomi Aki is already getting praise for her role.
“This is a biography of Whitney. The actor delivers » Twitter user writes.
“Love a good resume and was waiting for Whitney. Very happy with the team Bohemian Rhapsody behind him”Another writes.
Others are more important.
“Do We Still Need a Whitney Houston Biography?”one asks.
Another wonders if the documentary series wouldn’t have been better, a reference to Houston’s difficult time with substance abuse.
Some fans showed their distaste for the film because the singer’s sister-in-law, Pat Houston, is on the production side.
Who is responsible for the biography of Whitney Houston? If Pat Houston was involved, I wouldn’t see him. Sorry, but I can’t. The way Whitney served, in my opinion, was ugly.”
