The storied profession and tragically quick lifetime of Amy Winehouse is one which filmmakers have been trying to deliver to screens for years. Whereas Asif Kapadia’s documentary Amy managed it to Oscar-winning impact, the progress in the direction of a biopic has faltered on its path to screens. StudioCanal is hoping that Sam Taylor-Johnson could make it occur through a film referred to as Again To Black.

Makes an attempt have been made to get a movie made since Winehouse died in 2011 on the age of 27, following years of struggles with medicine and alcohol. However the singer, who obtained her begin on the North London jazz circuit, additionally rose to develop into an award-winning music celebrity.

Although earlier variations have stumbled due to the all-important music rights, the brand new movie has the assist of Winehouse’s property. That does increase questions of how deep it’s going to probe into her life (although Rocketman, for instance, did not draw back from the darker shades of Elton John’s life, regardless of his involvement). Matt Greenhalgh wrote the most recent draft of the script.

Noomi Rapace was hooked up to star as Winehouse a number of years in the past, so do not rely her out fully, however we would think about that Taylor-Johnson will search for her personal lead.
