R&B superstar, and actress Whitney Houston is back and making her returning debut to the big screen and we a so happy for her! She is set to remake the movie, "Sparkle" alongside Jordin Sparks, Cee-Lo Green, and soundtrack mastered by the one and only R. Kelly!

Whitney sat down with Shaun Robinson of Access Hollywood to talk about the film, and how the leading role was originally supposed to star Aaliyah. Houston stated:

“This was [Aaliyah’s] movie,” Whitney told Shaun. “When we brought it to her, she was so enthusiastic about it and she wanted it, to do it so badly. She was our Sparkle."

Do you think the remake will be as good as the original?
