Naomi Ackie, Who Plays Whitney Houston in New Movie, Stuns Alongside Stanley Tucci at London Premiere!

Naomi Ackie is all smiles on the red carpet alongside her co-star Stanley Tucci!

The 30-year-old actress stunned in a black gown while attending the premiere of her movie I Wanna Dance With Somebody on Monday (December 19) at the Ham Yard Hotel in London, England.

Naomi stars as Whitney Houston in the biopic of the late singer.

The film is a no-holds-barred portrait of the complex and multifaceted woman behind The Voice. From New Jersey choir girl to one of the best-selling and most awarded recording artists of all time, audiences are taken on an inspirational, poignant—and so emotional—journey through Houston’s trailblazing life and career, with show-stopping performances and a soundtrack of the icon’s most beloved hits as you’ve never heard them before.

Also in attendance at the premiere were longtime couple Cynthia Erivo and Lena Waithe.

I Wanna Dance With Somebody will be released in theaters on December 23. Watch the trailer now!
