The last photos of Amy Winehouse have been revealed and shockingly, she looked better in these photos than many had originally reported about the star.
The photos are from 2011 and show the late and great star out in public as she looks on into the street.
Earlier this week, it was announced an upcoming biopic of Winehouse was in the works. The script is being floated around to different casting agencies. It will be called Back to Black.
This isn’t the first time mentions of an Amy Winehouse movie have made the rounds. In 2015, it was even reported that there was a project set to star Noomi Rapace as Winehouse, but that failed to ever do anything near being able to materialize.
Sam Taylor-Johnson, who directed 50 Shades of Grey, is now set to take on the project – with production backed by Studio Canal. While it’s in its early stages, a script has been written by Matt Greenhalgh, and now with a big name like Taylor-Johnson on board, reports claim the project is moving quickly.
The public have taken to social media to air their fury.
Winehouse’s estate has given the film the green light, and considering Winehouse was once friends with the movie’s director, it’s no surprise.
Interestingly enough, the estate includes highly controversial figure – Mitch Winehouse, who is the late singer’s father.
For the last decade or so, he has been painted in a negative light, and even more so in Amy, which depicted the singer’s inner circle as exploitative of Winehouse’s fame, addiction and mental illness.
The documentary went on to accuse those closest to her of ignoring her obvious substance abuse issues, and even pressuring her to go ahead with live tours.
