Will You Be Watching? Bobby Brown Biopic Coming To BET

Bobby Brown is about to have the chance to tell his own life story, courtesy of folks at BET. According to Deadline, Bobby has locked in with the network to get The Bobby Brown Story out by 2018. Actor Woody McCain, who portrayed Bobby in their New Edition biopic, is slated to play the role. This is great for Brown, who tried to stop the release of the Bobbi Kristina movie produced by TVOne, he’ll get to tell his redemption story and some other fun affairs…like one with Janet Jackson!

BET says The Bobby Brown Story also will be a story about redemption. Through sobriety, the singer learns to be a better man, husband and father — finding love again and remarring in 2012. The Bobby Brown Story will pick up where the New Edition mini left off. It will chronicle the talented but troubled singer’s exit from the popular ’80s boy band through his solo success, his affair with Janet Jackson and tabloid-fodder marriage to pop icon Whitney Houston.
