Jennifer Hudson has landed the title role of Nelson Mandela's wife Winnie Mandela in the forthcoming film "Winnie." The script is based on the biography "Winnie Mandela: A Life" & is set to begin shooting in May. Here's what Jennifer, who is expected to sing the movie's theme song, has to say about her role:"I was compelled & moved when I read the script. Winnie Mandela is a complex & extraordinary woman, & I'm honored to be the actress asked to portray her. This is a powerful part of history that should be told."
Sounds like a big role for J-Hud that should earn her more acclaim! It's great to see Jennifer doing more acting; I do hope there's truth to that 'theme song' business though!
