Destiny’s Child alum LeToya Luckett has been chosen to play Dionne Warwick in “Dionne,” a planned biopic about the legendary R&B songstress.

Warwick, 75, was in Cannes on Friday to announce the project, which will also co-star Danny Glover, Olympia Dukakis and Lady Gaga as the late British singer Cilla Black.

Based on Warwick’s memoir “My Life As I See It,” the biopic will focus on the years 1962 through 1968.

“Dionne” is being produced by the recently launched AMBI Pictures. They’re currently shopping the project for buyers in Cannes.
