First time director Angela Bassett explains why she didn't even consider it....
Entertainment Weekly asked Whitney Houston biopic director Anglea Bassett if she considered Bobbi Kristina for the starring role and she replied,
"No, I did not think about that. I did not think about casting her. And probably for a number of reasons, you know. One being that she’s not an actress. I know she’s acted here and there. I know she’s been on their family’s reality show, but she’s not an actress and acting is a craft. It’s an attempt to illuminate the complexities of human behavior and life. And this is a very fast-paced schedule; we have just 21 days to tell this story. It’s more than just saying lines and turning the light on. You have to drive the story—there’s a technical aspect."In the interview Angela Bassett talks about meeting Bobby Brown for the first time on the set of Waiting to Exhale and says the Lifetime biopic is merely a trailer for a big screen effort being planned by the family.
