Halle Berry to play the Queen of Soul?

Aretha Franklin recently said that she would want Halle Berry to protray in a movie. I do not think that would work at all. I believe Jennifer Hudson would do her justice. Fantasia sounds like Aretha, but Jennifer is the better actress for this role.

Agreed. Nothing more to be said.

Jennifer's body type fits Aretha's more than Halle's would, too.

I wanted to put "old" body type, but although she's skinnier, she still is fuller than Halle is. Aretha in her early days wasn't huge.

Eek.

So, is there actually a movie being commissioned/cast? Or was this just something offhand that Aretha Franklin said in an interview?

I love Aretha, but I really believe that, sometimes, these artists are delusional about who they think would portray them in a movie. It's like when Little Richard wanted Prince to play his role. He could've certainly done it, but still ... we just KNOW better.
