Behind-The-Scenes Details of Jennifer Hudson’s New MGM Film ‘RESPECT’ – EUR Exclusive!

*”RESPECT” is the new MGM film that covers the life of music legend Aretha Franklin. 

It stars Academy-Award winner Jennifer Hudson, written by “Nashville” creator Callie Khouri and directed by Tony Award nominee Liesl Tommy.

The film wrapped shooting right before the Covid-19 lock down in 2020. EURweb correspondent Jill Munroe visited the set and spoke with Hudson and costume designer Clint Ramos to get exclusive behind-the-scenes details about the production.

Hudson shared that she “learned a great deal about Aretha in the process of making the film, even though they had been friends for years and discussed her playing the role for at least 15 years.”

Aretha would always give her advice, but “to learn that she really was coming from a place of experience where she had lived through those things” was eye-opening for Hudson.
