Noomi Rapace Yet To Commit To Amy Winehouse

Noomi Rapace has revealed in an interview with The Guardian that she has yet to commit to the Amy Winehouse biopic, written and directed by Kirsten Sheridan, which was announced in 2015:

“If I do it, all the components need to be right. That’s not a movie I can compromise with. She’s been a big part of my life; at crucial moments, she was like an angel when I wasn’t in a good place.”

“I have a painting in my house that’s four metres long that this Swedish artist did for me. It has ravens and the lyrics of Back to Black. When I left Sweden after my divorce, that was what I brought with me.”

“So the film needs to be close to my heart and done the right way. And if not, it won’t be me doing it. It’s too precious to gamble with.”
