Executively produced by Wendy Williams herself, ‘Wendy Williams: The Movie‘ documents the talk show host’s substance abuse issues, as well as her marital issues that lead to the public fallout between Wendy and her now-ex-husband, Kevin Hunter. Fans will also see the challenges Wendy faced throughout her career.
‘Entertainment Tonight’ premiered the movie’s trailer featuring New Orleans actress Ciera Payton as Wendy.
“I am here to stay. Wendy Williams is not going anywhere,” Ciera says as Wendy in the sneak peek. “I’m gonna come in like a hurricane.”
Scenes of drama flash throughout the trailer. “You’re self-indulgent, you’re narcissistic, you’ve got a coke habit,” one of the characters exclaim.
In another scene, Wendy yells to estranged husband Kevin, “Before I had you I had me, and not you, nor anyone else, have the power to take away my gifts.”
The trailer fades out, but not before Wendy firmly states, “I’m gonna bring the heat… I will turn this city out.”
Wendy Williams excitedly announced the coming of her new biopic on the Nov. 24 episode of her talk show.
“I’ve never been so proud of a project in my life,” Wendy said to her socially-distanced audience before noting, “You know, a side project.” Wendy continued, “I’ve never been so proud.”
Wendy could not contain her excitement and seemed to still be in disbelief. “Would you look at this!” she exclaimed. “I’ve got a date and a time and four hours. I want to watch it by myself, so I can stop the TV and back it up. I will learn how to do it by then.”
Watch the trailer below!
‘Wendy Williams: The Movie‘ premieres Saturday, Jan. 30, at 8 p.m. ET on Lifetime.
