Whitney's rendition of the national anthem never fails to give me goosebumps. I consider it to be the GREATEST rendition of our national anthem. I watch it every year on Independence Day! There is no doubt that Houston's voice was delivered from the heavens above. What a voice....lovely lady! RIP Whitney...

[@aishasadiq2210]

Honestly . Me too. She made it a Whitney song . If you didn't know it was the American National anthem , you would never believe . It wasn't an original song by her . Plus, others have sadly attempted to repeat the feat unsuccessfully ( not naming any names, but YIKES!

One of the few scenes in which we do actually hear Ackie sing is towards the beginning of the film, when Whitney is pushed onstage and expected to sing Greatest Love of All. Since she is nervous, her singing had to sound more unpolished to begin with and so for this number Ackie herself sings the early verses.

Say what you want but Naomi Ackie looks stellar as Whitney Houston. The fact that the trailer showed no drugs , let’s me know they focused on the right thing. HER VOICE, and it’s about damn time. Yes drugs will be shown because it was apart of her struggles but I’m glad that the main focus seems to be her voice, the tribute Whitney deserves. She was more then her demons!!! 👏🏾 Update: To the responses of her not looking like Whitney , y’all can be mad all y’all want , Naomi won the role fair and square, she auditioned just like everybody else!! The role was not handed to her, she put in the work , and gave Whitney’s team what they were looking for, im almost 100% sure there was several girls that looked more like her during the audition process that took nearly a year but if Naomi gave the best performance then she was the right choice!!!!! She is an actress not a look alike impersonator. Y’all see a trailer and assume she isn’t the right choice y’all do this with damn near every biopic that comes out , and majority of the time the actors y’all bully for not looking like the person their playing honestly ends up being some of best performances! Recently Austin Butler as Elvis literally Austin didn’t look shit like Elvis but he nailed that part because his job was to act!!! So is Naomi’s!!!

@hoiy vinosa I was 10. (((((MEMORIES)))))

[@ShadowNightWarrior]

No. This movie is an insult to Whitney.

[@thebiblicalprophetbrando5709]

Absolutely. I'm with it. Thanks for the ride.

[@destineetyson1719]

Rip Whitney Houston you are my favorite singer ❤️💞❤️💞❤️💞❤️💞❤️💞❤️💞❤️

[@rukam3]

She had the best laugh!! Miss you Whitney!!

[@TheMelMan]

Whitney da GOAT! 🔥

[@PRAYERIAS1]

Right

[@kryoh]

I will always get goosebumps whenever I hear her sing the US anthem.

[@rachaelclor]

One of the greatest voices in history-male or female-absolutely no doubt about that. 😊. There is absolutely no question why Ms. Houston is/was referred to as The Voice. 😊. No one to this day has had a voice like hers. 😊.

[@FQuintanaMarrero]

OMG!! I can’t wait. I hope this film gives her Whitney’s very well deserved recognition. It is a shame the way she ended…

[@moonminglevu3692]

I don't go to the theaters often but I will for this

[@stephenchristian3636]

Wow I’m speechless & just in Awe !!! This movie looks like it’s gonna be a joyous celebration of the life of Whitney Houston but also heartbreaking 💔 as well. I feel like she accomplished so much in her 48 yrs here on earth an tried to overcome her inner demons/trauma. Her legacy will forever remain embedded in this world!!! Even though she survived Sexual abuse I honestly feel like it haunted her later in life & as a Sexual abuse survivor myself I can tell you that the after affects are no joke . All Whitney ever wanted was to be herself & feel Loved 🥰 not used by some ppl around her. She was such a Beautiful Soul inside & out

[@hellomissamericanpie4970]

This is classic! Can't wait to see this! Who doesn't love Whitney? She was the bomb diggity! Glad they are using her real voice. Her pipes would be hard to copy lol

[@Raniz88]

I remember her performance at the super bowl. The first time I saw my father cryin, Ha was standing up and applauding the tv. Now I'm crying because of the movie trailer.

[@Barbieee1987]

If the trailer gave me chills (in a good way) I know the movie is going to be great! Legend forever! ♥️♥️♥️

[@jjay6764]

Great first trailer! No drugs, no Bobby just concentrating on her voice!

[@jjay6764]

@Hol M they will but everybody knows all of that stuff and it’s been talked about to death. For the 1st trailer it was refreshing just to concentrate on her magnificent voice. That was a great decision!

[@collinvalentine2895]

You might not know this, but they may have their arguments and that but Bobby Brown never got her doing drugs. Try understanding his story too

[@russelljudebalunan228]

I watched it last night, such a LEGENDARY MOVIE.

[@Sophie-ov3rx]

Sleep tight, Queen! 👑 Naomi will honor you and your legacy! Cant wait 💖

[@ThatsJustMyBabyDaddy]

Had to watch it several times to get a feel for it. Looks promising.

[@adrainevans6667]

This looks like a nice positive movie about the greatest singer of all time and I'm here for it!

[@craigtaylor6004]

Why is it that the brightest of stars burn out and fade away too early? This looks to be an amazing biopic of a very humble and talented young woman.

[@cindydavies3334]

Best ever national anthem sung by any artist at the Super Bowl

[@tyronzasmith3735]

ok, I was wrong my first thought was how many movies are they going to make about Ms. Whitney, but after seeing this trailer I believe they finally got it right and it's what we needed. Can't wait to see it❣

[@uk24]

Finally they’ve released the trailer. ❤️ I can’t wait to see this!

[@philipleanza3]

Whitney Houston's life story made into a 2 1/2 hour film was very entertaining with actress Naomi Ackie nailing down Whitney's speaking voice though the singing vocals were all dubbed with the real Whitney....Excellent character acting by Stanley Tucci as record executive Clive Davis & Tammy Tunie as Whitney's Mom, Cicely Houston. The film also depicts the turbulent marriage to Bobby Brown and Whitney's fall into drug addiction....The highlight of the film was Whitney performing the National Anthem at the 1991 Super Bowl which still brings chills....A must-see movie for anybody in the entertainment industry....Philly rates "I Wanna Dance with Somebody" 9 out of 10 stars!

[@Esther_ather]

I watched and still watch with tears in my eyes, Whitney is not just a role model - an inspiration. For me.

[@sparkwill5337]

Now THIS looks like a biopic!!!! Whitney should’ve never been reduced to a made for TV movie. She’s an LEGENDPERIOD

[@MichaelLoweryJr]

Finally...a REAL movie!!!! 🔥🔥🔥👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
