Derek Luke Joins the Remake of 'Sparkle'

More news round the remake front (yes, we are getting as frustrated with writing it when you're reading through through it): Derek Luke remains cast since the male lead inside the remake in the 1976 film 'Sparkle.' The film follows singer Sparkle Williams and her rise to fame. This time around around around, actress Jordin Sparks will probably be playing Sparkle with Luke representing Stix, a singer-songwriter deeply deeply in love with Sparkle. Starring alongside Sparks and Luke will probably be Whitney Houston, Mike Epps and Cee Lo Eco-friendly. If possibly we are capable of getting another Curtis Mayfield soundtrack by using this.
