Film
In 2009, Williams announced that she was in the planning stages of making a movie about her life. Queen of All Media was written by Kimba Henriques, with Robin Givens in the lead role of Wendy Williams. Filming wrapped up in late August 2009 and was set to be released in 2011. After Wendy's talk show premiered, producers thought the movie needed a different ending, which they filmed August 26 of 2009. Wendy announced this on her radio show and added that she wasn't really sure when it would be released.
Other notable cast members include Angel Lola Luv, Trey Songz, Lil' Kim, Chandra 'Deelishis' Davis, and Thea Vidale.
She appeared in the film adaptation of Steve Harvey's best-selling book, Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man.

Famous quotes containing the word film:
“A good film script should be able to do completely without dialogue.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“Is America a land of God where saints abide for ever? Where golden fields spread fair and broad, where flows the crystal river? Certainly not flush with saints, and a good thing, too, for the saints sent buzzing into man’s ken now are but poor- mouthed ecclesiastical film stars and cliché-shouting publicity agents.
Their little knowledge bringing them nearer to their ignorance,
Ignorance bringing them nearer to death,
But nearness to death no nearer to God.”
—Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
“Film is more than the twentieth-century art. It’s another part of the twentieth-century mind. It’s the world seen from inside. We’ve come to a certain point in the history of film. If a thing can be filmed, the film is implied in the thing itself. This is where we are. The twentieth century is on film.... You have to ask yourself if there’s anything about us more important than the fact that we’re constantly on film, constantly watching ourselves.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
