Marisa Abela is set to play Amy Winehouse in the upcoming biopic. The actress reveals being excited for fans to see her portrayal.

Not since Don't Worry Darling has a movie had such bad buzz surrounding it ahead of its release than the Amy Winehouse biopic Back to Black.

Blake Fielder-Civil met Amy in the early-to-mid-2000s, marrying her in 2007 before divorcing her to set her free - but their tumultuous relationship saw him introduce her to heroin.

Sam Taylor-Johnson would have turned down the Amy Winehouse biopic if she had been forced to make concessions to the late stars family.

The new biopic Back To Black charts Winehouse’s rise to stardom, her marriage to Fielder-Civil and her battle with addiction.
