They’re Re-making ‘Sparkle’

Will Whitney Houston join the cast of “Sparkle?” According to several news outlets, including Billboard.com, the “Million Dollar Bill” diva is in talks to make her silver screen comeback.

Jordin Sparks and Mike Epps are both confirmed for the 1976 remake — with Sparks snagging the title role like a true champion. While Houston’s role isn’t yet clear, she’s expected to play Sparks’ unsupportive mother.
