New Pics: Jennifer Hudson As Aretha Franklin in Upcoming Biopic!

Jennifer Hudson has already generated enough buzz for her “transformation” into the Queen of Soul, in the upcoming biopic – ‘Respect.’

Based on the life of the late and great Aretha Franklin, the movie has an impressive star-cast, that has further ignited our curiosity about the project.

But it is J Hud’s take on Franklin, that we’re looking forward to the most.

To steer things further, the Oscar winning actress and singer was spotted ‘at location’ during the ongoing shooting of the flick, giving us some major Aretha-circa-1968 vibe. Also spotted alongside her, was actor – Forest Whitaker, who’s playing the role of the late singer’s father – CL Franklin.
