Aaliyah Biopic Planned

Warner Bros. will be making a movie based on the life of the late Aaliyah. Bill Condon, the director of "Dreamgirls," is attached to direct the film. Canadian singer Keshia Chante will play Aaliyah in the movie, which will get personal regarding the private life of the late singer. The biopic, which should begin production by the end of March, looks promising, considering some of the names involved are Timbaland, Missy Elliott, Ginuwine, video director Hype Williams, & choreographer Fatima Robinson. Each time I listen to some of Aaliyah's music, it blows my mind as I realize her material seems to actually get even more relevant to the industry as time goes by, which explains why, with only three albums released during her lifetime, Aaliyah sold over 32 million records worldwide.
