I Wanna Dance With Somebody

The moving story of one of the world’s most famous R&B singers. The story of Whitney Houston from her journey out of darkness to worldwide stardom.
The iconic singer Whitney Houston will win a biopic starring Naomi Ackie (Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker). The actress becomes the great pop diva in the first trailer for I Wanna Dance With Somebody: The Whitney Houston Story, released this Thursday (15). The video features Ackie recreating some of the greatest Houston moments of her career, including her definitive 1991 version in which she sings the National Anthem for Super Bowl XXV; the production of her music video How Will I Know; as well as her famous response to criticism that her music was not ‘black enough’. “I don’t know how to sing black and I don’t know how to sing white either. I can sing,” says the actress imitating Houston’s voice in the trailer.
