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:
“The average Hollywood film star’s ambition is to be admired by an American, courted by an Italian, married to an Englishman and have a French boyfriend.”
—Katharine Hepburn (b. 1909)
“To read a newspaper for the first time is like coming into a film that has been on for an hour. Newspapers are like serials. To understand them you have to take knowledge to them; the knowledge that serves best is the knowledge provided by the newspaper itself.”
—V.S. (Vidiadhar Surajprasad)
“The woman’s world ... is shown as a series of limited spaces, with the woman struggling to get free of them. The struggle is what the film is about; what is struggled against is the limited space itself. Consequently, to make its point, the film has to deny itself and suggest it was the struggle that was wrong, not the space.”
—Jeanine Basinger (b. 1936)
