Another Aaliyah Biopic?
I find it funny that after ALL these years wanting an Aaliyah biopic and the rumors surrounding a biopic, Aaliyah is now getting not one but TWO biopics. We all know about Lifetime biopic which is set to premiere this fall. Wendy Williams will be producing it and actress Alexandra Shipp will be playing her.
Well it seems like Aaliyah's family is doing their own separate biopic about her and this one will be in theaters sometime next year. B Simone ( picture) has been casted to play her.

“We’re in a position where we can do the feature film and we can do the music,” said a source close to production.
Singer B.Simone (pictured) has signed on to portray the “One in a Million” artist. Terrence Howard and Wood Harris were named as possible co-stars for the big-screen film, whose script will be written by author Zane. Most importantly, Aaliyah’s uncle and former manager, Barry Hankerson, is working on the project.
