Few icons boast a career and a reach as resonating as the late, great George Michael.

In commemoration of what would’ve been the singer’s 59th birthday (June 25), Sony Music Entertainment and Trafalgar Releasing, are unleashing ‘Freedom Uncut’ – a feature documentary exploring the intricate layers of his seismic career to his personal life and more.

Showcasing never-before-seen footage filmed during the creation of his top-selling solo albums ‘Faith’ (1987) and ‘Listen Without Prejudice: Vol 1’ (1990), the doc will also spotlight George’s private battles with the rigors of fame as well as feature interviews with the late star’s celebrity friends Mary J. Blige, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Naomi Campbell, Nile Rogers, Jean Paul Gautier, and more.

Co-directed and produced by George’s friend David Austin., the feature-length documentary will be released as a global cinema event on June 22.

Ahead of its premiere, a first-look trailer has been unwrapped. Watch below…

Whitney Houston‘s story is well-treaded terrain – both during the legend’s life and following her 2012 passing.

However, a new big-screen biopic, ‘I Wanna Dance With Somebody,’ sets out to serve as the most seismic and most definitive take on a narrative like no other.

Helmed by Sony’s TriStar, the film is directed by Kasi Lemons and is written and produced by Anthony McCarten – who helmed Oscar winner ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ (the blockbuster biopic about Queen). Furthermore, with Houston’s Estate and longtime collaborator Clive Davis in the mix, the flick will feature her iconic music too.

More than anything, the attention of the masses is on the actress stepping into the role of The Voice.

With that recently confirmed to be Naomi Ackie, folk have received their first look at her as Whitney in the freshly unwrapped official poster for ‘I Wanna Dance With Somebody.’
