The life of the late Whitney Houston continues to prove a fascinating narrative.
TV One are gearing up to delve into it even more with their original movie ‘Bobbi Kristina.’
Aptly, the flick will chronicle the life and untimely demise of Bobbi Kristina – Houston’s only child with Bobby Brown.
Billed as “an honest and moving look at the young woman at the center of one of the most talked-about stories in recent years,” the film stars newcomer Joy Rovaris in the title role. Actress/singer Demetria McKinney will appear as Whitney.
According to producers, the project aims to restore what has been lost amidst the tabloid headlines and scandal surrounding her death: the real Bobbi Kristina Brown, a.k.a. “Krissy.” She will reportedly be shown as vibrant, talented, but troubled. overshadowed by the circumstances of her death.
Set hit screens on October 8th, the movie begins immediately after the 2012 death of Bobbi’s mother.
Peep the trailer for the film (which also stars Vivica Fox) below…
While we shudder at the thought of some of the recent influx of biopics (see: Aaliyah), others have actually been…dare we say…decent.
As such, we’re willing to give this a chance.
Will you?
