Fortunately, the biopic now has a release date locked in. It will be dazzling audiences on August 13, 2021, in the US.<\/p>\n<p>You can see it before that, however. Fandango and United Artists are hosting a one-night-only <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fandango.com\/fandango-premiere-respect-2021-224958\/movie-overview\">sneak preview screening<\/a> in select theaters on August 8th.

She was hand-picked for the role by the Queen of Soul herself in 2019, before the singer\u2019s death. The cast also includes <strong>Forest Whitaker<\/strong> (<i>Bird<\/i>), <strong>Marlon Wayans<\/strong> (<i>Requiem for a Dream<\/i>),<strong> Audra McDonald<\/strong> (<i>Private Practice<\/i>), <strong>Marc Maron<\/strong> (<i>Joker<\/i>), <strong>Tituss Burgess<\/strong> (<i>Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt<\/i>), <strong>Saycon Sengbloh<\/strong> (<i>The Wonder Years<\/i>), <strong>Tate Donovan<\/strong> (<i>Rocketman<\/i>), and<strong> Mary J.

It will follow her astounding rise to stardom, her involvement as an activist in the civil rights movement, and everything in between.<\/p>\n<p>The biopic includes her marriage to her manager, songwriter Ted White (Wayans), as well as her subsequent marriage to C.L. Franklin (Whitaker), a civil rights activist and minister. The movie also depicts her upbringing and how she first discovered her passion for music in the choir of her father\u2019s church as a little girl.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Respect also looks at Franklin\u2019s extremely successful musical career. Given her talent as well as Jennifer Hudson\u2019s, we can also expect a handful of incredible musical numbers in the film.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Watch_the_Respect_Trailer\"><\/span>Watch the Respect Trailer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Young Aretha Franklin with a spark in her eyes.
