Sam Taylor-Johnson was set to direct the Amy Winehouse Back to Black, as it was announced last year. Looking at the first photos, the late singer's trademark black beehive and gold hoops earrings can now be seen on Marisa Abela, who plays Amy Winehouse in the upcoming film. .
Back to Black will follow Winehouse's her time in London in the early 2000s and her rise to the fame. The screenplay for Back to Black was written by Matt Greenhalgh, a Manchester native who also wrote the script for Taylor Johnson's John Lennon biopic Nowhere Boy. Interesting to know, that unlike the Oscar-winning 2015 documentary Amy, the Amy Winehouse estate has given the go-ahead for Back to Black.
