Short description
Musical prodigy, Sparkle struggles to become a star while overcoming issues that are tearing her family apart. From an affluent Detroit area and daughter to a single mother, she tries to balance a new romance with music manager Stix while dealing with the unexpected challenges her new life will bring as she and her two sisters strive to become a dynamic singing group during the Motown-era.
What's left behind the scenes
- As in the original 1976 film on which this remake is based, the plot revolves around The Supremes, who worked at the Motown Records recording company and were later renamed Diana Ross and The Supremes.
- Whitney Houston (1963-2012) became one of the executive producers. She acquired the rights to create a remake around 2000. Initially, she planned for Aaliyah to play the role of Sparkle, but the singer died in a plane crash in August 2001.
