| Director Kevin Macdonald Will Be Directing New Film About The Late Singer Whitney Houston |
Oscar-winner Kevin Macdonald will direct the film about Houston’s life. This is the first documentary that the Houston estate has approved, which means the film will have access to her music and videos.
Previously, BBCTwo announced that they were making a film about Houston’s life, entitled Whitney, but her estate was not involved in the making of that documentary.
Variety quoted Macdonald as saying:

| Whitney Houston |
“We have access to never-before-seen footage of Whitney that charts her whole life from her beginnings singing in her Church’s gospel choir to the day of her tragic death at the age of 48, and three decades of her music including exclusive demo recordings, rare performances and audio archive.

Although we won’t shy away from the darker parts of Whitney’s life — her descent into addiction — I want audiences to walk out of the cinema and feel positive about Whitney and her music.
I want to reveal a woman that even her most die-hard fans never knew; and a woman those new to her life and music will never forget”.
