Marisa Abela Nails It As Amy Winehouse In ‘Back To Black’ Trailer

The life of Amy Winehouse is bound for the big screen this spring.

Audiences got their first look at “Back to Black,” starring Marisa Abela, with the release of a new trailer Thursday.

The clip shows Abela as Winehouse in her signature beehive hairdo and heavy black eyeliner, commanding the stage at grimy nightclubs before becoming a global superstar.

“I don’t write music to be famous,” she proclaims at one point in the trailer. “I write songs because I don’t know what I’d do if I didn’t.”

Directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson, the biopic is billed as “a never-before-seen glimpse” at Winehouse’s rise to fame. The film is produced in partnership with the six-time Grammy winner’s estate.

“Told from Amy’s perspective, the film is an unapologetic look at the woman behind the phenomenon and the relationship that inspired one of the most legendary albums of all time,” a synopsis for the movie states.

The film hits theaters May 10 in the U.S.

Abela, a British native, is best known to U.S. audiences for HBO’s “Industry,” in which she portrays Yasmin Kara-Hanani. She also appeared alongside Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling in last summer’s blockbuster, “Barbie.”

Taylor-Johnson, no stranger to rock ‘n’ roll biopics after 2009’s “Nowhere Boy,” said Abela immediately “inhabited” Winehouse long before sporting the iconic beehive hairstyle seen in the trailer.

“Marisa came in as Marisa – absolutely no cat-eye makeup or anything,” the filmmaker told Empire in an interview published Thursday. “She was very sweet and very quiet. And then I turned on the camera, and she looks down the lens, and literally, we all just went, ‘What?!’”

She added: “We’d seen some brilliant impersonations. But
