Nearly 8 months after its originally touted release date, Aretha Franklin‘s long-awaited big screen biopic, ‘Respect,’ finally struts into theaters August 13.
Led by Academy and GRAMMY Award-winner Jennifer Hudson as its principal character, the star-studded film also boasts major appearances from the likes of Academy Award-nominated and GRAMMY Award-winning singer Mary J. Blige, Marlon Wayans, Forest Whitaker, and many more.
As if chronicling Franklin’s life story wasn’t enough to get fans amped, Hudson used her powerful chops to tackle the Queen of Soul’s greatest hits – including ‘I Never Loved a A Man,’ ‘Natural Woman,’ ‘Chain of Fools,’ and, of course, ‘Respect.’
