In an interview with ‘E’ news on Tuesday Feb 21st, Megan Good reveals that Whitney had wanted her to play her in a biopic film.
Meagan says that a few days prior to Whitney’s passing, she and Houston were in talks about the film after Houston learned that Meagan had expressed her desire to play the departed diva.
We were fairly in the beginning stages,” Meagan said last night at Juicy Couture’s party with Vanity Fair.”We were supposed to meet today, actually.
Meagan also stated that she and Whitney talked about the ending of the story and she later told Vibe Vixen that she thought the ending should probably showcase Whitney’s comeback with her new album an new role in the upcoming film ‘Sparkle’
My feeling is because she has the film Sparkle coming out and she’s brilliant in it and she looks beautiful and healthy, my feeling was that’s how we should end the movie—as a new beginning for her.
The film is still up in the air, but with the recent passing of Houston it’s more than likely that the film may be picked up and headed into production very soon. It has not been confirmed whether or not Meagan would be casted for the role but she did mention that if she were chosen, the producers would definitely have to use Whitney’s voice because she is of no comparison in the vocal department.
I don’t think we’ve ever had a singer in history that I remember that could sing like her. “Plus, when people see someone’s life story, they want to hear that person’s voice because they connect with it, in their spirit and their soul. So you would have to use her voice.
