Production [edit]
Halle Berry, Robin Givens, Pam Grier, Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson, and Vanessa L. Williams were all considered for the part of Tina Turner.[three] Whitney Houston was actually offered the role, but had to decline due to imminent maternity. Jenifer Lewis also originally auditioned to play Tina Turner simply was cast instead equally Tina'due south mother despite existence only a yr older than Bassett.[4]
Angela Bassett auditioned for the role in October 1992 and was chosen just a month before product began in December. During that time she had to acquire non just how to talk similar Turner but to dance and movement like her. She would have been willing to endeavor to do the singing equally well, simply ''not in the fourth dimension we had,'' she said. ''I did think about it for a 2d, though.'' Instead, she lip syncs to soundtracks recorded past Tina Turner and Fishburne. Bassett worked with Tina Turner, but only ''a little bit.'' Turner helped most with the re-creations of her famed dance routines.[5] She also re-recorded new versions of all the Ike & Tina Turner songs used in the film.[6]
Laurence Fishburne was offered the role of Ike Turner 5 times and turned it downwardly each fourth dimension.[3] [7] "Information technology was pretty i-sided," said Fishburne, who turned downwards the projection based on the script he get-go read. Ike, Fishburne added, was "obviously the villain of the piece, but there was no caption as to why he behaved the style he behaved - why she was with him for xvi to 20 years, what fabricated her stay."[5] The writers fabricated some changes and though Ike is still shown as a pretty despicable sort, the film offers at least some insight into him - most notably a scene in which Ike recalls watching, at age six, his begetter's death from wounds suffered in a fight over a woman. The changes helped persuade Fishburne to practice the role, but he says that Bassett's casting as Tina "was the deciding factor."[5] [7]
Fishburne did non have Ike Turner around to help model his operation as much as he would take liked. He met him one time during production of the pic. "He was not peculiarly welcome on this project," Fishburne says.[3] The thespian'southward simply meeting was a cursory introduction when Ike showed upward at the Turners' one-time home in View Park during a location shoot. Ike signed some autographs and showed Fishburne his walk. "It was nice to come across him," says Fishburne. "Regardless of his actions, he was so much a part of Tina's life. The motion picture is about him only as much as her. It's unfortunate that he wasn't welcomed, that both of them weren't around more than."[iii] Director Brian Gibson had no contact with Ike. "I never spoke to him," says Gibson. "I was not allowed to. Disney felt that it would not be a good thought."[iii]
Screenwriter Kate Lanier omitted much of the brutality Tina Turner said she endured in her book.[8] Her grapheme was also sanitized; most notably, her relationship with saxophonist Raymond Hill and the birth of their son was excluded from the picture show.[ix] Lanier admitted that Tina Turner was non happy with sure aspects of the movie because some parts were fictionalized.[8] Tina Turner tried to talk to the Disney filmmakers about the script. In 1993, she told Vanity Fair that they saw "a deep need" to make a pic nigh "a woman who was a victim to a con man. How weak! How shallow! How dare you think that was what I was? I was in control every minute there. I was there because I wanted to exist, considering I had promised." She added, "O.K. so if I was a victim, fine. Perhaps I was a victim for a short while. But give me credit for thinking the whole fourth dimension I was there. Encounter, I do have pride."[10]
