Tina Turner, Music Legend And Actor, Dead At 83
Tina Turner has been an iconic force in popular music for over six decades. Still, even putting aside the dozens of memorable hits that powered the legendary artist's extensive career, the performer also had a few acting roles to her name.
While Tina Turner, who died at the age of 83 on May 23, 2023 after a long illness, may be well-known for her chart topping musical career, she had quite the acting resume as well.
Casting Turner as an ostensible villain may have been a surprising choice to many viewers, but Miller actually had some very specific reasoning as to why he felt the performer was perfect for the role.
Turner's impact was most notable in music, of course, but was also present in film, going all the way back to her appearance as the Acid Queen in the 1975 film, "Tommy."
