Answer
Dreamgirls
Answer
Dreamgirls
The Beyoncé film in which she plays Deena Jones is Dreamgirls. Released in 2006, the musical drama was directed by Bill Condon and adapted from the stage musical of the same name. Its story follows a Detroit singing group’s rise to fame and the pressures created by the music business.
Beyoncé’s character, Deena Jones, becomes the lead singer of the Dreams after the group’s manager changes its lineup and presentation. The character is loosely associated with the historical story of singers who moved from group success toward pop stardom, although Dreamgirls is not a direct biography of the Supremes.
The film co-starred Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Hudson, Eddie Murphy, and Anika Noni Rose. Beyoncé recorded songs including “Listen,” a major promotional single written for the film. Dreamgirls received several Academy Award nominations, and Hudson won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.
