Per Deadline: EXCLUSIVE: Following years of Hollywood working on getting a biopic of Amy Winehouse off the ground, Sources tell Deadline Studiocanal is gearing up to make Back to Black, a new film about the life of the Grammy wining singer who tragically passed in 2011 with Fifty Shades of Director Sam Taylor-Johnson directing. The script has been written by Matt Greenhalgh and the project is now moving fast following Taylor-Johnson boarding the pic. Studiocanal is producing with Alison Owen and Debra Hayward alongside Tracey Seaward. The film is expected to take a look at the life and music of Winehouse who started off as a budding North London jazz singer to eventually becoming a Grammy-winning music superstar with hit records that included Rehab and Back To Black. Her life would eventually be cut short in 2011 at age 27 following a long battle with alcohol and *****. Following her death in 2011, Hollywood has since tried to tell her story with various projects going into development including one from Lotus Entertainment with Noomi Rapace attached to star but ultimately none moving forward. While a feature film has yet to make it into production, the 2015 A24 doc Amy was a huge success ultimately winning the Oscar for best documentary. This pic is being made with full support from the Amy Winehouse estate and producers and Taylor-Johnson will begin their search for the individual who will take on the role of Winehouse in the weeks to come. Taylor-Johnson is best known for helping launch the Fifty Shades of Grey franchise after directing the first film to box-office glory. That film would go on to gross $569 million at the global box-office. She most recently worked on the Amazon series Solos. She is repped by CAA and Brillstein Entertainment Partners.

https://www.*****media.org/article/remembering-amy-winehouse-ten-years-later Amy Winehouse is a prime example of the double standard in which females get treated for addiction and mental health. This article states while everybody is apologizing to Britney spears, for Amy Winehouse and a few others it's too late, as we saw at their lowest, how we treated them on camera in person. He also talks about how when a male dies of a **** overdose. They are discussed for their genius in Music and pop culture, he said the perfect examples are Michael Jackson and Prince, the death of Michael is the best example of having all his scandals erased by the medias narrative and talking about his Music and how as a black artist he broke barriers, when it came to Prince he was praised for being a one man band, that could do it all and still put on a show.. Amy, whitney, they didn't get that coverage what we saw was their demons and addictions and how it's their fault their dead. Even when Mac miller died, somehow they were finding a way to Blame Ariana grande and make her out to be a murderer or complicit to his death, which is so not the truth. But this is how the media treats men.vs women when it deals with **** addictions, mental health and untimely deaths. One's praised, while the other will forever be shamed and blamed for what happened, even in death.. We owe Amy an apology for letting her down and not supporting her, when she needed it the most.

Ten years after her death. The legacy of Amy Winehouse lives on, thanks to Dua Lipa channeling Amy's signature hairstyle (which in itself was a tribute by Amy, to Ronnie Spector of The Ronnettes, a 60s Girl Group), the beehive hairstyle will forever be linked to Amy, who's tenth Anniversary of her death is coming soon..
