Variety Magazine announced that Jennifer Hudson is going to star in "Winnie", a movie about the former wife of the famous South African President Nelson Mandela. The film begins production on May 30 and will follow Winnie Mandela's entire life, dealing with highlights such as her activism for her husband, and lowlights such as her later association with a bodyguard who murdered a 14 year old. Boomie will also be singing the theme song. Congrats, the movie sounds great!

Great!  She's the best!  Hopefully it will come out when that horrible Color Purple musical movie comes out with Fantasia starring so J-Hud can embarrass Fantasia all over again.

After Jennifer Hudson giving birth to her baby "David", well this movie is a good comeback. It's really an honor, even thou she's not one of the CMA Awards 2009 winners for me she is still the best. Portraying the role "WINNIE" is an honor. Hope she will do her best like she did in Dream Girls movie. Good luck!
