Amy Winehouse Biopic ‘Back to Black’ Trailer: Marisa Abela Transforms Into Iconic Singer in Sam Taylor-Johnson Film
The Amy Winehouse biopic "Back to Black," starring Marisa Abela as Winehouse, has released a teaser trailer.
Starring “Industry” actor Marisa Abela as Winehouse and directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson (“Nowhere Boy,” “Fifty Shades of Grey”), “Back to Black” is executive produced by Nicky Kentish-Barnes, Ron Halpern and Joe Naftalin for Studiocanal and Alison Owen and Debra Hayward for Monumental Pictures from a screenplay written by Matt Greenhalgh (“Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool”). “Told from Amy’s perspective, the film is an unapologetic look at the woman behind the phenomenon and the relationship that inspired one of the most legendary albums of all time.” “Back to Black” marks the first biopic about the Winehouse, whose most popular songs include titles like “Valerie,” “Back to Black” and “Rehab.” After the singer’s death in 2011 at the age of 27 from alcohol poisoning, numerous documentaries about her life and legacy have emerged, including the Oscar winner in 2015 for best documentary feature, “Amy,” as well as the 2021 BBC TV film “Reclaiming Amy.” The biopic was first announced to be in development in 2018.
