Winehouse family deny biopic block
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 16 December 2011
A spokesperson for Amy Winehouse’s family has denied a report in the Daily Mail claiming that any attempt to licence the singer’s music for use in a biopic would be blocked. As previously reported, the newspaper quoted her father Mitch Winehouse as saying: “It would hardly be a biopic without the music and we’d never allow the songs to be released”.
But, speaking to Entertainment Weekly, the family rep said: “Mitch and the family would entertain ideas perhaps for a film, but only one they were sure would tell the truth”.
