CLIVE DAVIS WORKING ON WHITNEY HOUSTON BIOPIC

In the latest episode of the Variety podcast “Strictly Business”, Clive Davis explains that he and screenwriter Anthony McCarten teamed up to develop the script for a biopic on Whitney Houston. The pair agreed to work on their own biopic in order to shop a completed script to the major studios and to raise their own financing. Clive had never seen a documentary that captured the artist he apparently knew so well.
Davis says the biopic he’s working on about the life and career of Whitney Houston will be a ‘no holds barred’ portrait of the artist and he won’t sugar-coat anything.
Whitney Houston was a chart-topping singer of 1980’s and 1990’s hits such as “I Wanna Dance With Somebody”, “Saving All My Love For You”, “I Will Always Love You” and “The Greatest Love Of All”.
